Maria Shriver's father was Sargent Shriver. Apparently he was also known as Sarge. Spelled Sargent, it's more of a surname-as-first-name than a word-name-as-first-name. I prefer the look of Sargent to Sergeant, at least as a first name. Sergeant and Colonel just have such weird, non-intuitive spellings.

Oh, and I think Sargent nn Sarge is totally adorable. Guilty pleasure all the way, but oh...I'm glad you brought it up.
