What's In a Name?


Didn't I already use this title for a previous post? I think you will find it is worth repeating. We have already mentioned that Michael was the most popular boy's name for more than 30 years! Let's now take a look at what else besides a name our Michael has in common with other Michaels of his generation.

Michael Douglas- both are terrified of Glenn Close

Mike 'n Ike- both sweet as can be!


George Michael- both are snappy dressers

Michelangelo- both left-handed

Michael Keaton- both look terrific in a cape

Michael Vick- neither are very good with dogs

Michael Jackson- both are bla... um... both are fantastic dancers

Mike Tyson- let's just assume these two Michaels have nothing in common

Michael Phelps- both are capable swimmers

Michael Jordan- they're both black

Michael Buble- both are feelin' good!

Mike Myers- groovy!

Michael Andretti- both like fast cars

Michael J. Fox- both have strong Family Ties

Feel free to add some of your own comparisons in the comments section!
