His first name was properly pronounced with three syllables (/prɪˈzɜːrvɪd/ prih-ZUR-vid), and was a reference to being "preserved from sin" or "preserved in grace".

i don't want to go all william blake on this but i did think about posting it to the awesome names thread; this thread just got bumped first. i will readily agree that the name is both awesome and abysmal.
bizarro: it's actually just as funny to pronounce it with three syllables, if not funnier. i tried it. also you get to explain why it's three syllables, which is also some good 18th century yuks

Having spent much of the last year reading books written in or about the 18th Century, I can confirm that I have yet to come across a single name which possesses the magnificence of Preserved Fish.

The Happiness of Timothy Titsworth is surely the title of a 1968 b-side by some English pop psychedelic act on Decca or Regal Zonophone.

I thought Al Kaline was an abysmally poor joke nickname until I found out it was real. Which was good, as then I got a multiple-choice quiz question out of it:

Just saw an external work email from someone with the first name Dooki.
