I don't have an answer but I'd like to share with you my experience of this.I recently worked at a local building society and a co worker of mine was Chinese.He told me he was called Ben but that it wasn't his real name,He'd changed his name to sound more 'westernized '.out of 'feminine curiosity' I asked him his real name,expecting something UN pronounceable............"LEE", was his reply !!!!!

Not a boss, exactly, but that happened to me in school with a teacher. I said something about her that I don't care to repeat in polite company. :) As I was describing, in colorful detail, what a raging b*tch this woman was, I couldn't help noticing the horrified expressions on my friends' faces. Then I turned around and saw her standing right behind me. She'd heard every word of it. Then she began openly laughing at me, mocking me, and on top of it all, correcting my English. Man, was I embarrassed. But she seemed to react to my comments with good humor, and I later came to like and respect her.

Neither, the first is blase and the second is a real mouth full. Play around with a thesaurus. But It is good that your names actually inform about what you do.

WARNING: This story is NOT for those with a weak stomach or those with a liking for meat-pies! Please don't let your curiosity get the better of you unless you are sure that the worst things you can imagine will not put you off eating pies for life...\n\nMy first job was as an apprentice baker in a large family run bakery. At first I enjoyed the job, especially as employees were allowed to take home and eat a great number of the bakery's wares. (I personally liked thier meat pies, and would take a dozen or so home each week). I often wondered though why only the new employees were taking advantage of this offer. \nThen one day I changed shifts to work throughout the night, which is when I first discovered that the place was infested with rats. I had seen one or two during the day shift, but they were chased out quickly and I thought little of it, but on the night-shift several of the workers would hunt the rats for sport, and on my second night of working the new shift (while selecting more pies to take home), several of the regular night-workers (including the owners son) managed to catch a live rat. \nWhat happened next stays with me even today...\n\nThe Foreman, egged on by the owners son, took the rat by the tail and dropped it into the mincing machine which ground the meat for the bakery's meat pies! The other workers were lughing and slapping each others backs as the rat was turned into mince-meat, then squeezed out into pie-casings. The pies were then covered, added to the regular meat pies, baked and shipped out to unsuspecting shop owners. \nAfter asking about the frequency of these events I was told that this was a regular occurance, which is why very few workers actually took home the bakery's products. I dropped the pies I had taken in the bin and took the rest of the week off, understandably quite ill after discovering the possible contents of the pies I had regularly been eating and giving to friends and family.\n\nI'm ashamed to say that I didn't report the incident, the wages at the Bakery were extremely high (especially as I was so young) and I needed the money very much. I continued working there for another couple of months, but never took any more products home.\nEventually I was head-hunted by another bakery, and when I took the job I told my new employer of the practices of this bakery. Two weeks later the above mentioned bakery was closed down after a surprise health inspection, and although my new job was with a respected and very hygenic bakery, I still no longer took any products home.\n\nI still eat the occasional pie, but now only eat pies that have no meat in them.\n\nI'm sorry if this story upsets some people, but I can assure you that this sort of thing is VERY rare, I have since worked often in the food industry and have never come across anything even remotely as disgusting as this. \n\nWere I the man I am now when this happened, I would have taken action immediately, but it was my first job, and I wash fresh out of high-school with little knowledge of the world around me. It is my biggest shame that I did not act sooner, but the feeling of regret and self-loathing that I felt for my inaction have been a valuable lesson throughout my adult life, and never again have I stood idly by when my actions could prevent hardships and discomfort for others.

Yes I had a cat named after him. He was created By Gilbert Shelton not R. Crumb as I had previously thought. \nI found Robert Crumb's book with all his characters was published. I saw it on a bargain table at Borders. I was short money and when I went back someone else got it.\n I just found it on line. Great stuff. Who could forget characters like Micky Rat,Fritz the Cat,Zippy the pinhead.The fabulous Freak Brothers who had Fat Freddie and his Cat.Binky Brown meets the Holy Virgin Mary.( You had to be a victim of Catholic school to appreciate that one.).Man that was some amazingly funny stuff. All came out in the late 60's and early 70's.

He is legally known as Cliff Richard. Harry Webb was the name he was born with.   \n\nSo the answer to your question is Cliff Richard's real name is Cliff Richard!

He could be called the "first gentleman". Alternatively, he could not have a title at all and just be referred to by name. That was the case for Denis Thatcher when Margaret Thatcher was elected Prime Minister in the UK - he was just "Mr Thatcher".

I felt the same way when I started working at White Hen Pantry. I was all, "Watch out, Donald Trump! Snapessxy is on her way!" I was on my way, alright...on my way to living out of my car for three years after being caught in a ménage à trois with the delivery man and my boss' wife.

The next time you go in, simply make a comment such as "You know, all the time I've been coming here and I don't know your name?"  Say it with a smile and pause.  The staff member will be happy to provide you with their name.  Then add "Hi, (insert name here), I'm (your name), it's nice to have a name to put with you."\n\nIt sounds a bit corny, but it's a nice gesture.  Most people don't bother to learn the names of the people who serve them.
