Never mind, it shows up on the popularity charts. Wow. Why would someone do this to their kid?

Reminds me too much of the word "sewer." Are we sure this wasn't solely a surname?

Seward Mountain is a mountain located in Franklin County, New York, of which it is the highest point. Seward Mtn. Is named after William H. Seward (1801–1872), Governor of New York (1839–1842), and United States Secretary of State (1861–1869). The mountain is part of the Seward Mountains of the Adirondacks. Seward Mountain is flanked to the southwest by Donaldson Mountain, and to the east faces Seymour Mountain across Ouluska Pass.
William Henry Seward, Sr. (1801-1872) was the Secretary of State to Abraham Lincoln when he was assassinated. Lewis Powell, an associate of John Wilkes Booth, attacked Seward the same night as Lincoln's death in an assassination attempt. After infiltrating his house and injuring one of Seward's sons, he snuck into the bedroom and stabbed him several times in the face with a bowie knife. Luckily, Seward was wearing a jaw splint from a carriage accident just a week before. The splint saved his life. That night, Powell also injured Seward's other son, a soldier guarding Seward, and a messenger.
Well, this is a new one to me. Or should I say, an OLD new one to me? The name sounds like something that hasn't been used in about 150 years, and I'm pretty sure it sounded elitist even when it was used.
