LOL
In case you're really curious as to what the h*ll a Lydian is...it's a musical mode (like a scale). And Belrose was my DH's paternal grandmother's mn. Your comments about Ebenezer Vaughan had me ROFL. It sounds EXACTLY like what my DH would say! :o) Wait...I think he DID say that when I mentioned Eben / Ebenezer to him. As an aside, my youngest bro was a surprise & my dad wanted to name him Ebenezer or Ichabod. My mom said, "NO. His name's Ryan."

Just in case you're genuinely curious..
"...what is Belrose?" Belrose is my dh's deceased grandmother's mn. I think actually it was a surname farther back.
"...what is Aster?" An aster is a star-shaped flower. I like Esther (which means star), but don't like alliterated combos (Emmaline Esther), so I subbed in the flower name.
I love this game, b/c I can gauge people's responses to some of my "out there" combos. :o) DH hates anything non-traditional (his name's John, so we'll have to forgive him, lol) and BtN is the only place I can get honest and varied opinions. ;o) Thanks again for playing!
