Fwd: -ckx consonant cluster?

[James Harbeck]

>Has Redd Foxx come up yet? What? What do you mean he wasn't Flemish?
>Next you'll say Jimi Hendrix wasn't, either!

P.S. Just for clarity: I know Hendrix is originally a name of the
same general sort as we've been discussing, albeit Jimi wasn't dutch.
Redd Foxx, on the other hand, was born John Elroy Sanford, and
borrowed Foxx from Baseball player Jimmie Foxx. Where his Foxx came
from I'm not sure, but he seems to have been born with it.

James Harbeck.
