Oh....alright. I do love to drive Greg nuts with these...
"Buzz" had two older sisters. When he was born, they couldn't pronounce "Brother" so they called him "Buzzer" which stuck, later shortened to just "Buzz"
It could have been worse, the second man to walk upon the lunar surface could have been Edwin Eugene "Bubba" Aldrin.
Next Question:
Neil Armstrong was selected to exit the LEM ahead of Buzz Aldrin, even though Aldrin's position in the LEM was closer to the hatch and required some awkward maneuvering (While wearing EVA suits) to make it happen.
What political reason/logic put Armstrong's name in the history books ahead of Aldrin?
