Adrian Fogelin: Hello, my name is Adrian Fogelin. To me my name sounds like someone falling down a flight of stairs, Adrian Fogelin. When they were naming me, I don't think my parents ever said the two names together out loud. My last name, Fogelin, means "little bird" in Swedish. It must be tricky because lots people say it wrong. They say FOG-lynn or foe-GEL-in When I went to school, the kids didn't even try. They just called me Fogey. If you pronounce my name correctly, hey, great. If you don't, it's okay. Just don't call me Fogey.
