    That's what I was thinking! Although I like Piper Grace and Declen.

    I worked for a credit card authorization call in for a bank in the early 70's. We got a call for authorization on a purchase and the guys name was "Large ????" I got to talking to one of the other employees and asked "Who names their child Large? She said the same person that named his brother "Small". The names in themselves weren't that bad but when combined with their last name was really insensitive on the parents part. Mr and Mrs Peters sentenced Small to a life of snickering. Ann in TN

    Such as a trio of names for girl triplets:

    Belva, Velma, and Melba.

    Ok, that's it, I'm done. What's your stupid thought for the night?

    Lol, i have heard some weird names. However after i meet my DH, i realize that i can no longer in the camp of What where THEY thinking..now im in the What was I think? My step daughter's name is Agasgv Alasgidahno which is Cherokee for "One who dances the Rain" and then We named my son Wayha Dekanogia which means "Wolf who sings"..but i was smart and put Connor as my sons middle name just on the slight chance that he didn't want to use His first name lol =)

    I worked with someone whose last name was DOLLAR. She named her daugher PENNY. Hopefully the daughter married and took her husband's surname ... unless it was something like 'Wise' or 'Henny'.

    I belong to what were my great grandparents and my parents thinking. I was named after my grandmother, whom I loved dearly. Her name and mine is Olyar. Pronounced Ol-YER with the emphasis on yer. Thank God, my middle name is Faye. I have never found the origin of the name or heard of anyone else that has it.

    Why Lillian, and not Laura?

    I wonder if the "Quilt Elves" will come and help me with the problem I have with my paper pieced airplane quilt? Not one block is the same size and none are the size they were supposed to be. Back to the drawing board.
