Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency ‧ 1987
Dirk, please, if you would. I prefer it. It has more of a sort of Scottish dagger feel to it.

What it means
Our interpretation.
The speaker asks to be called Dirk because the name suggests a Scottish dagger. The preference gives a name a sharp, dramatic quality. The humor lies in explaining an ordinary request with such an elaborate image.
