Au contraire! Oral was in the US top 1000 from 1880-1930, and there's a famous TV preacher called Oral Roberts, who must be fairly well-known, as I've heard of him and I'm not American. Terrible name though, definitely. :)

Wow, well I blame it on the Swiss or German settlers. Not uniquely American if it originated from the Swiss is it?
