D-Cady Herrick
D-Cady Herrick (April 12, 1846 – February 21, 1926) was an American lawyer and politician.
==Name==
He was baptized Cady Herrick, but his father thought it better to add an initial hyphened "D-" to the name to avoid class-room jokes, like calling the boy "Katie." Thus the initial did not stand for any given name, and the first name should be pronounced "Dee-CAY-dee." The press took a long time to get aware of the rather elaborate construction of the name, and printed mostly D. Cady Herrick, the initial with a period, which led to the general belief that the initial stood indeed for an abbreviated first name. Many people thought it was "Daniel," after Daniel Cady, and the ''New York Times'' printed in 1904 "Donald" Cady Herrick as the Democratic nominee for Governor. He was not the first New York politician to use an extra "D" which did not stand for any name, Daniel D. Tompkins added the middle initial to distinguish himself from another Daniel Tompkins while studying at Columbia College.
