¿Question #229098?
PolarDad: True story... One of my students this year is named 'Sir'. It isn't a nickname. It is his real name. His parents did it so everyone would have to show his respect. Thoughts?

RealGuest: I'm guessing it backfired
TheGrimReeple: Sounds like his parents have a pretty weak grasp of the word "respect". And have ensured that he's going to cop a lot of disrespect.
imyourskribe: The hell?
Derang3d: Mr. T had the exact same reasoning - but he chose it himself. That's all the difference.
Jedadeana: Sounds like a way to be teased constantly instead of respected...
