The only time I've seen it be really advantageous was when the father
(with the mother) moved out of the house and the son assumed various
bills.  He switched them over to himself eventually, but in the
meantime, there wasn't any problem if someone called asking for the
person paying the bills....



OTOH, with different names, when someone calls and asks for the father's name when everyone who knows him knows he has moved, it's a dead giveaway it's a telemarketer, and you can either have some fun with them or tell them exactly what you think of telemarketers (which itself may be your idea of fun) . . .

God bless America,
Land that I love!
Stand beside her, and guide her
Thru the night with a light from above.
From the mountains, to the prairies,
To the oceans, white with foam�
God bless America!
My home, sweet home.

-- Irving Berlin (1888-1989)
