I just moved to North Carolina recently (well okay, it's been a month now). I was watching the local news earlier, I can't remember the station, and one of the anchors is named...

Neal McNeal.

OUCH.

That's even worse than rhyming the first and last name.

Sorry, I just had to share that.

I know a William Williamson!

I hope for his sake that he's like my friend's uncle, Phil Phillips, and his "first name" is just a nickname derived from his last name.

And hello, fellow NC-transplant. I'm a few months into my seventh year here. It's grown on me.

a friend in middle school's older brother was named donald donaldson, but he went by donny. so donny donaldson, lmao. and he was named after his father, so there are two of them.

Wow. With a name like that he'd sort of HAVE to be a news anchor, wouldn't he? That, or a Vegas lounge act. :X

We have news anchor Robin Robinson (I don't know how she spells it) and I guess it is her real name, because I heard her making fun of her parents for choosing it once.

There's a school here in Toronto called Neil McNeil Catholic Secondary School.

There's a car dealership in my area called David McDavid. I always sort of assumed they picked the name for advertising/easy to remember.

Hah, I was going to say the same thing. I just moved from Dallas to Austin a couple of months ago. :)
