Fern Jean is remarkably discordant.

Nothing really jumps out at me, but I wonder why they may not have named little boy Faith as Faithful or Gratitude or something a little less common for girls. I suppose he'll probably go by Sebastian anyway though...

I'm curious why even though the current trend in the UK is to use nicknames like Alfie as full names, kids are getting named Frederick but not Fred (neither are popular in the US, as far as I can tell) and there were less Freddies than Fredericks. Anyone have any thoughts on that?
