nice touch with the trick questions for Bonser and World B. Free. another good one would be Coco Crisp -> Covelli Loyce Crisp

boof would be a good trick, but unfortunately, "boof" is a nickname. his first name is john paul. it was legally changed, but he was born john paul bonser

@ sportsfanatic91: the creator asked for the real first name, not necessarily the birth name. Therefore, since Boof legally changed his name to Boof, that is his real first name, and therefore it is correct.

You are correct Twinsfanz, I am looking for the real, legal, first name, not the birth name. Otherwise, World B. Free would have to be changed as well.
