Re: WDYT of these old surnames?
in reply to a message by Miss Claire
I adore old fashioned/nostalgic names so this list was fun to look through. Thanks. I did have to giggle at a few of them, though. Fredonia? Wasn't that the name of a fictional country in Duck Soup (Marx Brothers)? Leafy? LOL. As a nn for Relief? Relief? "After 24 hours of crippling labor, mother decided to call me Relief." LOL. I couldn't ever look into a man's eyes and say, "I love you, Dobbin." I'd crack up mid-sentence.
Thanks. That was a hoot.
