I don't hear Arthur much anymore, nor Myron, my uncle and one grandpa whose middle name was LeCroix.

Beulah - an aunt, a grandma and a great-grandma (not related to one another except though marriage)

Courtney as a boy's name

Also, watched an old movie about Edison. One of the male actor's real first name was Lynn.

My next-door neighbour in CT hated her first name, Abdulia, so she went by Juji, pronounced "joo-gee." I though both were really kewl names.

I had another friend who went by Abe, but his real name was Avenicio, which I loved.
