Who is Ruddy?

"Ruddy" is my old family nickname. I grew up in the 60's. I used to have a cowlick my Dad couldn't keep down w/ Brylcreem. We duck hunted when I was a kid and Ruddy Ducks tails stick straight up. My big brother looked at me and said " You look like a Ruddy Duck" It's been my nickname 60 yrs and I thought that would be a good name for my roofing company.
