[Opinions] Mock
I saw this name in the local paper; it's the name of a guy who sells real estate. It's probably a nickname, but I still think it sounds stupid. Thoughts?

I bet it's a family surname used as a first name. Yeah, real dumb.

I don't know...in his picture, he looked like the kind of guy who would have Mock as a nickname. He looked like a game show host, or something. People tend to not do the family surname as a first name thing here that often, so I don't know about that.

I think of the word "mock" as in "fake." I don't care for it.

it sounds terrible...Even as a nickname. Mock turtle. Mock turtleneck. Yuck.

Besides being a word, it sounds like someone saying "Mark" in my accent. (I'm from New England originally.)
