Bud Weiser Cadillac Chevrolet of Beloit, Wisconsin.
Then again, if you're a male with the surname Weiser I think the odds are pretty good that you'll be called Bud at some point in your life!

Had a school mate a long time ago named Israel Beaver, who, ironically had a gross overbite. I wonder how his nickname became Bucky Beaver (of IPANA Fame)?

We had a Dr. Pepper at the hospital.........alcohol rehab specialist...........think he must of had an adversarial relationship with Dr. Bud Weisser from the family medicine dept. Dr Payne and Dr Butcher struck fear in the hearts of their patients and Nurse Ophielia Tiddy gave the apprehensive patients other things to contemplate. We had our share of tenderhearted pro's too. Dr Franks was kind of a weenie, and Dr. Oates a bit on the mushy side. Dr. Rice often went against the grain, Dr. Plum however was always good for a juicy tale.
(and yup...we actually had all those names on staff)

For years in LA, both on TV and radio, there was a restaurant reviewer named Elmer Dills.
I used to know a fellow fireman named Frank Aglio, aglio meaning garlic in Eyetye.

I didn't know this lady that well, but she used to work with a friend of mine. I used to see her when I'd go pick up my frend Christal for lunch. Her name was Ann Lynn Bigg, then she got married to Leo Berger. Now her full name is Ann Lynn Bigg Berger

I also had a teacher named Ms. Roach (food-related in a gross way, I suppose).
No, not really: brings back fond (if hazy) memories of munchy moments in the 60s.

I think the family of the Bigg/Bergers should get together with the Bunns.... it would be quite the Bigg Berger Bunn shindig!
