I know a guy named Richard Les. Everyone calls him Ritchie.

James Bondsteel. This has got to be the apex of awesome names.

And the best part? James Bondsteel didn't grow up to become a podiatrist or plumber with an awesome sounding name. Nope, in 1965 James Bondsteel did exactly what you'd expect a fictional character with that name to do - enlisted in the Marines and later the Army. On May 24, 1969, Staff Sergeant James Bondsteel went above and beyond the call of duty in combat, earning the U.S. Military's highest honor - the Congressional Medal of Honor:

Citation: For conspicuous gallantry and intrepidity in action at the risk of his life above and beyond the call of duty. S/Sgt. Bondsteel distinguished himself while serving as a platoon sergeant with Company A, near the village of Lang Sau. Company A was directed to assist a friendly unit which was endangered by intense fire from a North Vietnamese Battalion located in a heavily fortified base camp. S/Sgt. Bondsteel quickly organized the men of his platoon into effective combat teams and spearheaded the attack by destroying 4 enemy occupied bunkers. He then raced some 200 meters under heavy enemy fire to reach an adjoining platoon which had begun to falter. After rallying this unit and assisting their wounded, S/Sgt. Bondsteel returned to his own sector with critically needed munitions. Without pausing he moved to the forefront and destroyed 4 enemy occupied bunkers and a machine gun which had threatened his advancing platoon. Although painfully wounded by an enemy grenade, S/Sgt. Bondsteel refused medical attention and continued his assault by neutralizing 2 more enemy bunkers nearby. While searching one of these emplacements S/Sgt. Bondsteel narrowly escaped death when an enemy soldier detonated a grenade at close range. Shortly thereafter, he ran to the aid of a severely wounded officer and struck down an enemy soldier who was threatening the officer's life. S/Sgt. Bondsteel then continued to rally his men and led them through the entrenched enemy until his company was relieved. His exemplary leadership and great personal courage throughout the 4-hour battle ensured the success of his own and nearby units, and resulted in the saving of numerous lives of his fellow soldiers. By individual acts of bravery he destroyed 10 enemy bunkers and accounted for a large toll of the enemy, including 2 key enemy commanders. His extraordinary heroism at the risk of his life was in the highest traditions of the military service and reflect great credit on him, his unit, and the U.S. Army

A few years ago we had a guy in our shop named Zach Gunn, we wanted to nickname him "Machine" but he was waaaaaaaaaaaaaay to slow to be a machine gunn. We called him Potato Gunn instead. One day we all met at a bar after work and he introduced us to his cousin, Thomas. This dude's name was Tommy Gunn. Pretty sweet if you ask me.

NH had a state rep named Dick Sweat. He went by Dick.

Guy in the town I grew up in was named Richard Head. He went by Richard.

My dad was a school teacher his entire career, so he has seen a bunch of strange/funny names.

Two of his favorites were sisters, Liberty and Independence, with a last name of Bell.
