It started when I learned that T.C. Broadnax would be our next city manager, replacing A.C. Gonzalez. From one two-initialled city manager to another. Then, because this is how my brain works, I found myself marveling at the fact that once upon a time Dallas had three consecutive two-initialled mayors: J.M. Thurmond (1879–1880), J.J. Good (1880–1881), and J.W. Crowdus (1881–1883). That’s when I started going a little crazy. In an effort to infect everyone else with this two initials thing, I turned to Twitter and Facebook for suggestions. Here, then, is the most comprehensive list of two-initialled Dallasites ever compiled in the history of ever. This is a living document. Suggestions in the comments will be added to the list as needed. In no particular order:

B.J. Austin
D.D. Lewis
A.C. Greene
A.C. Geen
T.D. Jakes
J.J. Barea
H.L. Hunt
O.L. Nelms
J.R. Ewing
J.J. Pearce
R.L. Thornton
C.J. Wilson
W.A. Criswell
R.L. Griffin
B.W. Stevenson
S.M. Wright
