Alpha Bravo Charlie Delta Echo Foxtrot Golf Hotel India Juliet Kilo Lima Mike November Oscar Papa Quebec Romeo Sierra Tango Uniform Victor Whiskey X-Ray Yankee Zulu.
There are many other variations of it. Some are entirely made up of Male first names, some entirely female first names, I've seen about 15 that are all similar to the standard international Ham one...
So no, Larry is perfectly alright. You got the jist, right?
