Best character name EVER!


Cole Trickle. It sounds like some sort of dysentery you'd get from working down the mines too long...

If it were you, you'd change your name, wouldn't you?

He's one letter away from being a Mr. Man.

Dick Trickle (Cole's namesake) hasn't changed his. I think it was either careless or cruel of Mr. and Mrs. Trickle to name their son Richard!

If you smell something burning...it's probably you!!!

Yep; the mind boggles!!

I went to school with a guy named James Head, seriously, not a joke. He was Jimmy from Jr High School forward.

James Head? I don't see the issue. Richard Head, sure. But James?

I used to work with a woman called Shelley Lapper. Which was unfortunate, because in work documents her name was abbreviated to S.Lapper. Plus she wasn't married, so would have no doubt been formerly called Miss Lapper at times in her life.
