Help[Opinions] Re: Unusual Names from Library Donor Plaque (1996)
in reply to a message by Xena
Library plaques have some of the most interesting names. :)
I guess Vernal is a place in Idaho, but it probably corresponds with the general Vern trend? I know a Vernelle who's from the southeast.
The most interesting to me are Clela, Deeda, Verda, Boise, Glade, and (40+ in the 90s) Arlo. The closest I've seen to those IRL are Alverda, Shade, Glen, and Deedee.
Coral, Arlene, Olive, Jerilyn, Clarence, Wendell, Wilford, and Vilate seem like a funky collection, too. I wonder if Vilate is the surname or if someone messed up Vitale.

I can confirm Vilate is a first name, since their last name is Whittle on the plaque. But yeah, could be a typo in the first name!
