Boy with girl's name solves his problem.

 There Once Was a Boy Named Jacqueline

There once was a boy named Jacqueline. He was so ashamed, for he had been given a girl's name! It was no fun to have to say that name. Why not Teddy or Freddy or even Jeddy? He would have been happy to have those names insteady! But whoa, all he got was a serious frown. He lived his life in this town but, because of his name, he felt like a clown! That's it, what a revelation! What this town needs is a clown! How cool would it be to go to a school that trains boys to act like fools! Don the floppy ladies hat, attach the funny red nose, walk with a wiggle and presto, he's become a clown named, you guessed it, Miss Jacqueline Jiggle! As it turned out, there were no more frowns in this town as it finally had a brand new clown!

There once was a boy named Sue. Johnny Cash made him famous for standing up. That's what Jacqueline should do, rather than play the clown.

This is really not a very good poem. I read it three times, looking for something that would bring this unfortunate boy some respite. Sorry to say, I never found it.
