    What about William - Bill? That one always puzzled me but not enough to make me Google the reasoning behind it.

    Same

    Also Richard and Dick

    Some Richards are Riches and some Richards are Ricks, but a few Richards are Dicks.

    @MistyB023 Or some Ricks are Dicks.

    Alfred was really Bruce's father, he just didn't want to tell him because he was disappointed in his son for going around dressed in a costume beating up insane people.

    What about Henry/Hank?

    Hendrick is the Dutch form of the name Henry. Henk is the diminutive form of Hendrick and thus Hank from Henk...

    My youngest is a Henry...I call him Hank a lot of the time...but I'm the only one...mostly because he's always been big for his age unlike his older brother who is kinda little...they're 2.5 years apart and my youngest is the same size as my oldest...so I always called him "Hank the Tank"

    The name Jesus is prevalent in my family but everyone of us goes by Jesse...

    In fact I didn't even know my name was actually Jesus until I turned 15 and needed a copy of my birth certificate for a work permit...

    My mother didn't even know lol... I remember asking her, if she knew my name was Jesus to which she replied "What the hell did your father do" haha... Mexicans
