It's only a name...right?

I actually found it amusing when the year started that Chad Johnson officially changed his name to Chad Ocho Cinco. He wanted it on the back of the jersey, but the NFL said they only use official names, so he stuck it to the man by getting it legally changed. Unfortunately, it was too late into the season for the league to make the change (Some sort of licensing BS), but I will look forward to seeing an Ocho Cinco jersey next year.

Now we move on to a member of the Tampa Bay Bucs named Greg White. He is a fatty defensive lineman who is not a great player, but I don't think he qualifies as a schlub either. Today he took it upon himself to legally change his to Stylez G, White. The name is not nearly as funny as the reason for it. He apparently like a character in Teen Wolf named Rupert “Stiles’’ Stilinski, and thought that was a good enough reason to legally change his name.

Greg White is a dofus. There is no other way to put it. I had an English teacher at Ohio U by the name of Bruce Bruce. Yes...same first name as last. The guy was a bit of flake and if anyone in on this planet needs to change his name it's him. (Yes...the bearded man in the photo is the one and only Bruce Bruce)

Greg White's name change got me thinking. If I was going to change my name to a character in a cheesy 80's movie, who would I go with?

Here are my top five:

Johnny 5 Back ......After the robot in "Short Circuit", the most underrated 80's movie of all time

Venkman Back......After Bill Murray's character in "Ghostbusters"

Tango Back.........After Sly Stalone in "Tango and Cash"

Chunk Back.........After the fat kid in "Goonies"

Zoltar Back......After the fortune telling game in "Big"
