Names also point to where one is from... Alden is a fine old New England name. Never thought I'd have a nephew with it. In the Colorado town my husband is from, LaVerne Johnson married LaVerne McConnell, so now when you talk about one of them the listener will ask he or she? And my friend Carroll W. **** dated a girl, Carol Wendy *same last name! Of course I get the same thing with a name like Cameron. I met another woman with the name and she also had a Quaker background, and got her name from her grandfather. And there is always the name my other grandfather passed on to a girl-child, Cola Godden ****

I also like my friend's name, Raven.

On the subject of names going in cycles, I chose my kids names when I was in high school and NO one was named Jessica or Joshua... Oh well.

And for job appropriate names, who could beat Cardinal Sin?
