What's in a name?

Daughters named George, too, I believe... or is that another of those urban myths?

I do know a woman named George, but she's not related to Foreman. She's a Political Science professor in North Carolina.

I went to school with a girl named Kennie. She had electric blond cork-screw curled hair and was completely insane and tons of fun. She was definately a kennie.
The one name that doesn't get me is Trudie, my mother's and great aunt's name. I can see a woman named Trudie, but I couldn't imagine a little girl named Trudie, just seems too grown up.

Just got back from a trip into town to forage for food. The local florist has a message board out front and a birth announcement is displayed - the new baby's first name is Camry. Thankfully her last name is NOT Toyota!

I wonder what Camry will name HER daughter. Pepsi?

I thought of a couple more:

A girl a grade above me in middle school was Stormi Seay
A girl in middle school's mother did not have to change her name when she married! Her maiden name was Hall and they could find no common relatives.

No one mentioned lemonjello's twin - orangejello.

I've seen Notorious, Wonderful, Seagram and Trainnieyana Kenosha Mercedes.
Also Queen, Queen Mary, LaVern, Seagram, Lavoris and Dentyne- the last 4 are men
This is the south and we have a lot of last names for girl's first names- Taylor, Stider and Dabney (corrupted from D'Abinee)

I work with a woman whose middle name is Elmer and my Dad's name is
Thoy Lee.

My neighbors girls names are Sky and Blaze which, when I met them found their names to be the only people I had ever met with those names, and still the only ones I know. Their pit bull dog is named Blaze too, not sure what the story is there and have never asked. I think it was just a coincedence when they got the dog from the previous owners though.

Yeah, but Trudie comes from Gertrude, which is HORRIBLE..
