Panthers WR Requests Name Change Back to Philly

You may recall Panthers WR 'Philly' Brown requested to have his first name changed to his given name 'Corey' in the Panther press info over the offseason instead of the nickname 'Philly' he has had since high school. After the Panthers third preseason game against the Patriots in which Brown had umpteen drops (4 or 5) I decided I would only call him 'Philly' going forward:

Brown has gone from defacto starter to bubble player in two weeks based on his poor play, hence I'm going back to calling him Philly. Hell Newton did it too in his post game interview (thought it was more out of habit for Newton I think).
