Have you ever met people with some of the surnames used on TV like Mertz, Kramden, Huxtable, Cleaver, etc in real life?

Sure some surnames are common like Anderson, Brady, etc

I have a FB friend whose last name is Bagley.

I knew a Stone family, like Donna Stone from The Donna Reed Show.

I knew a girl with the last name Brady in elementary school. (No, her name wasn't Marcia, Jan, Cindy, or even Carol!) After starting junior high school I started seeing her less and less. It was so much that I had forgotten about her, until I got a Facebook friend request from her.

Also, I knew a girl named Kelly Fox in junior high school, exactly like Hayden's daughter on Coach! That's both the first name and the surname!

I went to school with a couple of Cunninghams (like on Happy Days), and one of the teachers at my elementary school had the same surname (no relation).

There was a Michelle Pfeiffer in my high school orchestra.

Although he is not an actor, we have a local news reporter in Nashville named Jimmy Carter.

I know a woman named Mary Richards like on the Mary Tyler Moore Show.

Our one-time next door neighbors had the surname Anderson.

Also, I worked with a man named Howard Cunningham (the father on Happy Days) for a while. Interestingly once I mistakenly called him Richie! :eek:

:lol: What did he say?

:lol: What did he say?

I can't remember, but I didn't get into any trouble. :D He understood, and I explained something like "Wrong member of Happy Days"! LOL!

I knew a young lady whose last name was Cleaver when I was in college.

I worked once with a man whose last name was DuBois (as in Benson)

There were quite a few families named Howell in the area I grew up in, one owned a local mom & pop grocery

And I was in the army with a guy named Joe Barnes (Joey Bishop's tv show character's name).

I work in a call center and occasionally when I'm bored I'll look up names of sitcom charcters in teh computer. I found a David Crane once but no Niles or Frasier! The other day someone with the last name Briscoe called and I had a hard time trying not to laugh! Even looked up Moon and found plenty of those!

This is a movie actor, but I went to school with a dude named "Bruce Lee" but unlike the oriental martial arts star, this was a black dude. He caught hell from everyone with that name! lol

No offence to people but i thought he had already died a few years back i havent heard anything about the man in so long he has not really been on tv recently but considering he was born 1926 he lived a long lifespan.
