I heard a story once, from a teacher iwho started out in LA, Oakland, SF or some such hippy haven back in the day.

Kindergarten - all her students had name tags for the first few days until she could memorize their names/faces. One kid's tag read "Fruit Stand".....so..... ok, ok.

Kid had a puzzled look on his face all day long whenever she called on him or talked to him, using his name, as is appropriate.

Came bus time, she flipped the tags over to see their stops.

His read "Dennis".
