When people ask me if “Fritz” is my real name, I say it is. It’s my true name, it’s who I am, it’s just not the name that’s on my paperwork. That “other” name is just the one my parents chose for me, but they can be excused because they barely knew me at the time.
Nope. That’s not what they call me. “fritzoid” is what I use here because “fritz” was already taken.
My family now calls me Fritz. Everyone who’s known me socially or professionally for 30 years knows me as Fritz. When and if they find out what my “other” name is, they usually say “‘Fritz’ suits you better.” If you want to send me a check, then I’ll tell you to use that “other” name, but beyond that there’s no reason to share it here.

Purple dinosaur? Teaching kids the world is a safe place? J Bernard Pillsbury may find a new calling not far removed from his drug business.
