Mark Hoffmann: Hello, my name is Mark Hoffmann. When I was growing up, there were a lot of people with the first name Mark in my school and so somehow my teacher started calling me Hoffmann and that stuck. And so I have friends now that only know me as Hoffmann or Hoffy, depending. Hoffmann is also spelled really strange by having two Fs and two Ns, which is less common. And so I often get my name misspelled on paperwork.
