I joined in on a fun topic Friday morning on the Country 104 morning show with host Nick Cooper.
All morning, he was asking the audience if they have ever come across their name in media, or any other form of entertainment. The idea came to him after watching a show where "Nicholas Cooper" was admitted to hospital.
While I have never met another Cooper Douglas in person, on a screen, or on the internet, I am aware of NFL player Cooper (Douglas) Kupp. Other than that, I don't have many examples.
There must be a few Douglas Cooper's out there. The number of times I have had my named flipped around has led to an identity crisis at times.
But instead of correcting them, I embrace the switch up as my more "formal" personality.
