Double Uniques

From my trivia partner, Bruce Brown:

Having been cursed with a brutally pedestrian name, I have long been fascinated with those whose monikers make them immediately recognizable. A former colleague of mine named Theda Wamboldt got me thinking about people who don’t really need a last name because their first name is unique, at least in certain circles. But what if their last name is unique as well and they could easily be identified by either name? They are Double Unique.

This list uses the names found in the SABR database and on www.baseball-reference.com. If the spelling differs, e.g., MacPhee and McPhee, they are counted as separate and eligible for the list. Additions or edits are always welcome.

If you enjoy double uniques and other such frivolities, please consider making a donation to help further research of this sort throughout baseball history.

Thanks!
