➠I met a man on the bus named Conrad, and although he told me his name was Conrad, his real name is Thomas. Conrad was his middle name, which he prefers everyone call him. Ever since he could remember his family and friends called him Conrad. His dad wanted to name him Thomas, after himself, but his mom loved the name Conrad, because that was the name of her favorite uncle. So in order to please his dad, his mother named him Thomas Conrad.
