Why some parents name their sons D*ck ?

They don't. They name their child "Richard."

I don't ever hear young people called Dick, just old people, probably because during one of said generations, the word took on that meaning. That one Dick ruined it for all the Dicks.

People name their son RICHARD, which Dick is a nickname for.

It's a very bad nickname. Also isn't Rich a nickname for Richard ?Zensword

It's the shortened version of Richard, I wouldn't call it a nickname. For example, Mike is the shortened version of Michael, but Mikey, or Mickey, is a nickname.

I still don't understand how Richard turned into Dick.

Dick the Lion Heart sounds awfully strange to me. :lol:

Or, Robert into Bob for that matter....

Dick can be an awesome name or a terrible one, depending on what name goes with it.

Dick Lugar = awesome (sounds like a porr star name)

Dick Trickle = terrible

I did go to school with a guy called Richard Head - no joke. Quite what the parents were thinking I don't know.

But dick's alright - some people can pull it off quite well :)

Im not joking- I went to school with a MaryJane Baker. *facepalm*

As for naming your kid dick, that word wasn't a slang term 50-60 years ago. You notice it's only older folks who have that name?

I know a few richards, none of which go by dick. Thank god.

My cousin went to School with a guy named Ben Dover.

Sometimes these kinds of names can be awesome. Like in the case of Hung Wang.

Yes we do. Seriously though, even beyond that - Dick Lugar.....that's just manly as hell.

Dick was a name before it was a penis.

F*cking Dick, why'd he have to be such a dick.

How exactly is a shortened version of a name not the same thing as a nickname?
