That fits well enough. So what I heard was right: 2 of Europe's greatest literary figures were both called Shake-spear. How amazing. (This is considered so improbable by some people that they say it proves that 'William Shakespeare' was merely a PSEUDONYM, the implication being that his Works were not written by that certain schoolmaster from Stratford.)
