So a note on Gerald G. Dixon and Gerald Dixon Jr. (since without context that name isn’t special) - they have the same father and different mothers. Each mother wanted to name their son after their father, Gerald Dixon who also played at South Carolina. One wore the ‘Jr.’ on his jersey to differentiate from his half-brother. Gerald G. Dixon’s full name is Gerald Gervoris Ky’Trell Dixon.

Jasper and Casper Brinkley are unsurprisingly also brothers. Twins, in fact.

Only 10 names prompted a red squiggly line indicating a misspelling.
