1950s teens looking for penpals
I once had a stack of teen magazines from the late 50s and there was a section for people looking for penpals; obviously I had to read all the names!First & last names:
Lorelei O’Neill !! (she sounds iconic)
Patsy Lamb (sounds like an endearment, very cute and a little dumb too ❤️)
Evangeline Rose (sooo beautiful!)Foreign:
Edgar (Venezuela)
Co (Holland)
Zyqmunt (Poland)
Jaydev (South Africa)
Cor De Jonge (Australia. I don’t remember if that’s his last name or..)
And I think all of these were from Japan but I don’t remember for sure:
Yukiko
Katsutashi
Takamichi
Michio
HajimeOthers:
Antoinette, Bascom, Boyd, Bruce, Emory, Ignatius (“I like aviation”; so cool), Lunora (I could totally see this coming back with the nn Luna), Lynnea, Neville (“I would love truck loads of letters”; and I hope you got them Neville 🥺), Peanuts Slick ??, Princess, Theretha (“hobby is visiting Indiana graveyards”…Theretha honey, R U Ok??).
