Subject: RE: BS: The MOST British given name of all is...
Forgot to say in my post the other day....my British-born grandfather's first names were Christopher Hiram. Christopher I can understand - it sounds British - but Hiram? I always think of Hiram as being a 19th century Amurk'n entrepreneur out to change the world, not someone who was born in the British Isles in the 1880s.

Then there is his sister (also mentioned in my post) Remillion. Heavens only knows where that came from.

Cheers
