You should have seen our class in high-school... there were 7 guys
named Nikolai, two of them having the same family name and on top of
that their surnames had the same initials. Not to mention that the
stem of the surname (i.e. his father's first name) of one of them was
actually a nickname/diminutive for a very common Bulgarian name which
happened to be the name of the other guy's father :)

Something like "John Richard Doe" sitting next "John Richie Doe" :)

One of our English teachers found out a solution for it - he just
named them Nick 1st to 7th and the Nick-names (sorry, couldn't resist
:) ) just stuck.
