I had a much older second cousin now passed away with an unusual name. I always knew him as P.C. as did everyone else. It was only at his funeral that most outside his immediate family learned the given names for which those initials stood. He hated them, even his headstone reads “P.C.” instead of his full name.
It was Physics Columbus.
