Kiki Cuyler… pronounced wrong for so long!
Am I the only one who has mispronounced Kiki Cuyler’s name for as long as I knew of him as a HOFer from the 1930’s?
I just assumed it was pronounced “Key Key” like the Kiki Dee from back in the Elton John days. Nope! Check this out… His name "Kiki" (pronounced "kuy-kuy", rhymes with "eye") was a shortened form for his last name. He gained his nickname as a child, when it was simply "Cuy". Who knew??
