Poor Zig! I'm sure he had name issues his entire life. Since "Hilary" was his first name, I can't blame him for using "Zig," which is the first part of his last name when it's spelled correctly as "Ziglar." The whole Zig Zag thing is pretty funny, though!

It's a memorable name. Good for marketing, lol. But yeah, someone dropped the ball.

I got to meet him just before he died. He needed assistance from his daughter to get around but his mind was a quick as ever.
