Can I just be really marmish and remind people that the profession of herding sheep is spelled shepherd? Like, for really real. It has evolved variously as a name, being spelled Shepard, Shepperd, Sheperd. But the actual word is shepherd.
The mimsy police thank you.
Farm the marm all you want, Beverly.
Buffistas: We're nothing if not pedantic and marmish. Now with more marm!
The mimsy police thank you.
I see your mimsy and raise you two Borogoves.

I actually did have Vincent's name to the mix and "Annie" which is Kate's pseudo in Australia.

I think it's the fact the name John is so common. Maybe it's part "everyman-hero" and maybe even part JFK.
I think we need a new raft of heroes named Delbert. Marvin will do, in a pinch. All the heroines need to be named Hepzibah and Inez.
