When My Uncle was a lad, there were a couple of girls at school by the name of Kyzia Crump & Eva Onions (oh don't get me on the subject of ONIONS........)

And in the book of "Real names of Real People" is Mr Lear of Lear Jet fame. He called his daughter Shanda. It's in the book so it must be true.

Anyway what's all this about surnames as christian names - it was the custom in many families to give their sons' middle name that of their mother's maiden surname. And that is true of my generation. All one of me.
