Friday .... Names that are initials only

One of my Feral kittens sleeping on my lawnmower. I miss the cats.  Maybe some will show up at our new home.

Now for today:

Sheila who moves around a lot but now in Florida mentioned my ref to R.E. and Mary. She said she had kin with the same names and the RE was just initials. This R.E. Was Robert Everett methinks, but RE to us. HOWEVER, she sure kicked in a couple memories. 

In the military I knew at least 2 men with ‘initials only.’ My nephew Ted joined the USMC with RC Jones.  When that happens the yeoman records it as R (only) C (only). At the first muster Ted recalled as names were called the DI called out "Ronly Conly Jones," no one responded and everything got quiet. RC spoke up, “I’m RC Jones, that might be me.”

Also, we have a good friend, YZ Isaacs.  He says he has brothers and sisters; all names are letters only. The funny part of that is My company built YZ’s house. I had the habit of taking a grand kid with me at times.  During that time it was Sherece.  Grandma asked where she was going and she said proudly, “To YZ IZZ’s house.”

IF l had been named letters only I would have liked DD, then my initials would be DDD, or 3D. LOL

What letters would you have liked or preferred?
