My given frist name is Freddie.

Are your initials FDT?? Fred Thompson's given name is Freddie. :)

Nope, it’s worse than Freddie. Frederic was my paternal grandfather’s first name. I was given my maternal grandfather’s middle name which is - get this -
Goree (emphais on the last syllable)

You can imagine what I was called in school - Gory.
