Many years ago I knew a set of triplets named Sandy,
Shelly and Rocky Beach.

But that's nothing compared to the wacky names now.

The only Heber I knew personally was Heber Jentzsch, a senior official In the Church of Scientology...

While doing genealogical research I ran across a long-deceased distant cousin named Parshandatha.

Turns out to be a Biblical name, from Esther 9:7. Only problem was that the original Parshandatha was one of the sons of Haman, and the relative named for him was a girl.

Perhaps the parents picked the name by opening up the Bible and picking the first name they saw.

Sure! I might not post much, but I'd love to read about it!


Whiled away a week of vacation one year watching one episode after another. Great show!

Anyway, thanks in advance for the pings. I look forward to them.

You got it: the name is just a proxy for the type of upbringing the kid will receive. It's not the name that dooms the kid, per se. It's that the name reflects that the kid has dumb parents and probably wasn't brought up wisely.

You were talking about a Noble Justice from WV, earlier. He is maybe from Southern WV, McDowell County or Mingo County. There are all kinds of Justices and Justuses in that part of the world.

Mormon names Heber, Nephi, Orrin, Ammon, Lehi.....

Okay, you have to be fair to the Mormons. They also have Alan, Wayne, Merrill, Jay, Donny, Marie and Jimmy. Pretty mainstream there.

Morgan was a strictly male name for a while but just after my brother was born they started naming females Morgan. Sad:(

That's different, how did a Choctaw, get a Mormon name?

I was told that when they came to California, they went through Heber, AZ and thought it was a cool name for a kid.
