8) Lloyd Bernard Free/World B.Free
Lloyd Bernard Free was an NBA player between 1975 and 1988, playing for Philadelphia 76ers and Golden State Warriors among others. He had a very flamboyant playing style, full of high risk shots and outrageous dunks.
It was this particular playing style of his that led to his friends nicknaming him “World”, for his 44-inch vertical jumps and ability to shoot from any corner of the court.
In 1981, Free did what every person desires – he dropped his first name and started using his nickname “World”, kept Bernard as his middle name and in the process created the coolest name ever – World B. Free.
