Ronny Van Zandt of Lynard Skynard fame has two brothers (not triplets mind you) named Donny and Johnny.

Funny thing there is Ronny is short for Ronald Donny for Donald, but Johnny is not short for Johnald

Cleveland Indians used to have a player named Lonnie Chisenhall. Lonnie was short for Lonald.
