Re: Jethro?

Well, it'll be associated with Jethro Tull, but that's not really a bad thing, right?
It's got an interesting sound and interesting connotations, but as a first name, it sounds very much like it would come from a Satran and Rosencrantz groupie. You know--it's the sort of name that sounds like it would be very carefully picked because it was unusual, and that would make Yuppieboy!Jethro speshul and yuneek.
As a middle name, its character doesn't get outshone by that aura of "Look how different it is!" I think it'd be neat; something like Mark Jethro or Vincent Jethro sounds a lot better than Jethro John or Jethro James.
