Who had or has the most unique name of any player in NBA history?


I will start with, perhaps the thread locker, "World B. Free."


What are your suggestions?

Not only was he in the NBA but some other NBA PG learned his game from Shammgod. When asked who taught him his dribbles he replied, "God". I forgot which player it was though. Someone on Washington I think.
