25. Priebus was a town in Prussian Silesia.

And lots of Germans settled in Wisconson. As for his first name, were his parents hippie history nuts (hey, instead of calling him Starchild, let's give him the name of the ancestor who came to America...)or were they naturalized citizens? They could have been refugees from WWI or WWII.

27. you have no idea of the names being given now, really!

lol, i used to work for an agency that dealt with births (i'm now retired) and some of those names, lawwwwwwd. can't pronounce them, can't spell them, poor kids!

[csziggy]

29. Oh come on - some of the names of yesteryear are pretty bad

From my genealogy research: Aquilla or Equilla (woman, spelled both ways for the same person), Jesse/Jessie for men and women, Birdie (name on the birth certificate, no other name), Enis Bell (woman), Lacy (man), Permelia (woman), Salathiel (man), Tilitha (woman), Zenie (woman). Those were all in a one family, various generations.

[blondeatlast]

28. Me. My son has an unusual name that comes from his dad's native language (Hindi).

Do we really want to go down this path? Really?

Edit: I know, I know--lighten up, right?

To that I say: meh--and I'm being polite.

[JohnnyLib2]

33. Kudos

I agree.

Sorta middle-schoolish, isn't it?

[Lint Head]

[Bluenorthwest]

34. You are doing old material

Usually, the joker is Rush or a red neck like him and Reince is substituted with names favored by black people, which have been known to be fairly unique. I wonder how you feel about that? What kind of people name a kid---? Is that really a direction you feel good about? Do you have a list of cultures that are allowed to name their kids as they wish and those who can be mocked for it?
The OFA crowd is too mean for my taste, all the time. This shit is just twerp work.

[Taverner]

35. Could be worse - 'Geller of the mountain' was one girl I knew

Parents were a bit on the crazy side. She wasn't. Went by G.

[Ilsa]

36. Momma thought it was synonymous, but better than "Douche", which is

what she wished she had done after intercourse.
