    I almost had the same name as a man who committed some very famous murders soon after I was born. My parents chose a different first name for me, but his was in the running. They told me they would’ve changed my name if they had picked the murderer’s name.

      Yeah, Oba Chandler would have been a pretty tough name to grow up with, so I’m glad they didn’t go with that one, too.
