¿Question #4545?
[Deleted user]: [deleted question]

Narlgoth: I guess Honuses just aren't the ball game type. :- .
pwilz: Maybe we could encourage this by giving teams some kind of Honus Bonus.
jessitron: because Honus is a weird name.
ZeroZilla: Because you can't guarantee, having named your kid Honus that he will become a ball-player. More likely, he'd be crippled from all the schoolyard beatings he'd likely take for the dorky name his idiot parents gave him.
Ludocrazy: Because there IS a God
aleo09: it's dated
davidchujr: not common name
DHEK: Why should more ball players be named that???
Numskull: Nobody names their kid Honus anymore. It's just not cool.
checkmate123: Honustly?
POvidiusNaso: That's what I would like to know.
ZiggyZambo: Because only one man in the history of the world was ever named Honus.
MaksimSmelchak: Talisman, Cosmic Encounter and Robo-Rally.
baronricks: Instead of retiring Honus Wagner's number, they retired his name.
scriptorum: I like cheese.
Critical Mass: I don't know...honustly
bigbadsteve: are you serious? you arent familiar with honus sosa and honus bonds?
brainrob: Their mums had better sense
Loquutus: I'm working on it.
LemonyFresh: I suppose the Honus would be on the parents of the ball players to make that happen.
jellospike: Because it rhymes with Anus.
Tushratta: Because Honus is a goofy name.
otrex: Who would want to be the 2nd best "Honus" ever?
ssmooth: Same reason we don't see more ballerinas named Gertrude.
djlg: Because its a silly name for a ball player.
consolewa: If we did, the name would get stale and that would be a shame.
jttm: What do you mean by "ball players"?
GrandpaDave: I dunno
Lord_Prussian: It's not a very common name
CDRodeffer: It wasn't that popular a name 25 years ago.
skelebone: The name has fallen out of favor.
chaddyboy_2000: Good question. I'd like to know the answer myself.
puffinge: Too often misprinted as Anus
Spielfreak: Or Ty, Cy, or Babe?
skrutsch: I don't know, why?
CortexBomb: Because there aren't many people being named Honus these days, hence, the possible pool is smaller, which makes the chances of any of those strapping young lads with that name making it to the big show that much lower
sos1: Because the best is a hard act to follow
