Both of the boys were avid hunters, took at least one day off during hunting season to be with their dads during deer season.
I never begrudged the boys that time with their dads. They are learning lessons that can not be taught in a classroom.

My mom dated a genuine range working cowboy named “Lance”.
Hated him (9 years old) until he gave my brother and I pocket knives. Then he was the greatest ever and we were glad to see him around.
Still works the ranges down in Argentina last I heard.
Lance is about as manly as it gets, named for a long spear used from horseback.
I like Norman names.

Sometimes perfectly good names fall out of favor for one reason or another. At one time Agnes and Ethel were very popular and perfectly acceptable names. Nowadays? Not so much.

We named our son Travis and he named his son Austin, both are on the cowboy list.
Travis was one of the heroes of the Alamo and Austin is a family name.

My Grandma is named “Gertrude” i.e. Trudy.
That is archaic these days.

I just talked to a Dallas K-9 cop. His service dog is named Kenny....I got a chuckle out of that one, but I liked the name....

It’s funny how names can be so popular for awhile and fall out. My name was pretty popular for a time, but I don’t think it cracks the top 100 anymore. One day it may come back as a *vintage* name. LOL

I remember my mother always getting annoyed when we would talk about her grandchildren in terms of, “Heh, doesn’t ____ look just like his mother/father?” My mother would always reply, “He’s his own person and he looks like himself.”

Yes, I knew that it wasn’t Tug’s real name (didn’t know his real name—thanks for the information).
Some folks may not know that Tug’s son is Tim McGraw, the country-and-western singer.
To: brytlea
And other names, such as Sarah and Elizabeth, never go out of style. If you heard of someone named “Ethel,” you’d think, “old lady.” If you heard of someone named “Britnee,” you’d think, “young girl.” But a Sarah or Elizabeth could be 12 years old...or 90.

Mine is one of those old standbys, but I have not heard it used in ages. However, I don’t think anyone thinks OLD when they hear it. Yet. :)

I feel sorry for any child born to parents who think the child is simply an extension of themselves...That's why I hate to see people names "Jr." Didn't the parents want to give this boy his own, separate identity? I've never been a parent but I had, the last thought for a given name would be mine.

Normally, it is the husbands who will say no son of mine is gonna be called Jayden. My 29 year old son named his first boy (and my first grandson) Jaylen. Broke my reality into a thousand pieces.

Reagan for a girl is pretty good. I've heard that one, and it turns me off.

When I was in my 20s (1960s) I dated a girl named Dianette. In high school, I dated a girl named Ronette. No joke.
