Subject: RE: why there are so few Sharons in song
Jennifer Juniper was Donovan? well well.....it has been a long time after all.

I don't remember any Sharons in my generation at school in a NSW country town. We had a Karen, and she pronounced her name with a long a, I have never come across that before or since.

Many of the girls I went to school with were called Jennifer. Or Joan, Judith, Jean, J names were very popular in the late 40s-early 50s. Helen, Susan, Wendy, Pamela, Yvonne - names I remember from high school.

Cheers
