Bil Wright: Hi, my name is Bil Wright. When I was in high school, I found that teachers and friends always called me BilWright, as though it was one word.
It was never just Bill, or Bill space Wright. It was always BilWright. And I started to write that on my papers. I would write B-I-L-W-R-I-G-H-T, because I thought, if I put it together, I should drop one of the Ls.
And eventually, when I realized that I really couldn't do that. I couldn't have a one word name. I just kept it B-I-L, and then W-R-I-G-H-T. And it kind of stuck, and that's what it's been ever since.
