Roger decided to change his family name from Maras to Maris. Why? It seems that Roger was already experiencing unpleasantness from the sometimes fickle fans. Roger changed his last name so that he would not have to endure the unflattering chants from some who sat in the stands bent on rhyming his "Maras" name inappropriately. As Sister Ewals noted, he was sensitive . . . but he was still steady and focused.
I'm not sure what you could rhyme with Maras and not Maris...
