I like Penn State's own August "Mike" Michalske. At least neither guy was named April or May.

I always liked our own Lincoln Lippincott III. Just sounded so “Ivy League”. He could play, though. Since he graduated in late 60s there might be a Lincoln Lippincott IV or V out there by now!
Interestingly 4 on this list played for the Browns over the years. Mingo, Rucker, McCoy and Hooker.
Ardley Ashkicker, a defensive end for Dartmouth in the late 60's.

FIFY- Of course it was Rosevelt, his proper name, known for wrestling Sirhan Sirhan, also an unusual name, to the ground after the Bobby Kennedy assassination. He later became an actor and an ordained minister.
