Aberdeen is a city in Scotland, and a big one I might add my linguistically challenged FRiend. The Aberdeens in America derive their names thusly.

Are there any Abderdeens in America?

Yeah, in heavily Islamic areas like South Dakota, Kentucky and Ohio. Nice try, but Abderdeen is just an alternate spelling of Aberdeen.

Oh, yeah? Can you show me a gazetteer that uses that spelling? I may be old fashioned, but I would call "Abderdeen" a misspelling.

By various posts in this thread I see we desperately need to correct something.

It is HA-V-RE de Grace, not “Ha-r-ve”.

Really?

My apologies, then, to Orioles fans for misspelling the name of the legendary shortstop, Havre De Grace.

(Still doesn't look right, as I type it.)

Follow the thread backward and you’ll get it. Sorry for being subtle.

Yeah, I got that, but I’m not sure anyone else did. Y’all too subtle for me.

Well, now I guess the Greenies will petition to stop ALL rail service in the US.
