Adonai Mitchell - name cracks me up

Serious question - would Jewish commentators and media personnel then refer to him instead as "AD"  or "Mitchell"?

Adonai is already a substitute for the name of God. They shouldn't have any issue using the word, unless they view it as offensive as a name? I'm not sure.

Raised in the Catholic faith, I was always surprised by the Latin American baseball players named Jesus, as in one of the Alou brothers. Just another one of those head scratchers seen throughout the years.

That one is a double whammy.  
 

You pointed out the obvious one but it is also pronounced “Hey, Zeus”.  It’s as if you’re buddies with Zeus and putting yourself on a level with him.
