The only downside to that is Tedy had a drinking problem in his early years and abstains from alcohol, so he never capitalized on it commercially.Tedy Bruschi.

Tom Brady is essentially the ideal name for a quarterback. Name waspy AF? Check. Went to "The Midwest Ivy" because real athletes don't go to actual Ivy's? Check. Is reserved, team-first, and offensively humble? Check. Tom Brady is the perfect name for a quarterback. It's like Peyton Manning; only from a family that descended from people who won the second revolution and find it uncouth to give their children a name more fit for a horse. Horse irony not missed.
Even though he is a bottom 50% player, Brandon Spikes, complete with full sleeves and chat roulette video with a fatherloather is a pretty ideal name for an inside linebacker.
Who are the Tom Brady Ancestors? Tom Brady Sr.'s family line emigrated to the United States from Ireland in the mid 1850s, during the potato famine. His mother Galynn P.

Name meaning: "Son of the spirited one"
Counties associated with the name: Leitrim, Dublin, Armagh, Meath, Longford, Tyrone, Cavan
Coat of arms motto: "The right hand is clear."

Always liked the law firm, Benjarvis Green-Ellis. Randall Gay was a funny name too.
The McBrady clan disagrees with your description of Tom as a White Anglo-Saxon Protestant.
