Sounds like cause and effect.Yeah, but EEP came first.
Hey, evil dead, you're in my seat.

Spike's Bitches 26: Damn right I'm impure!
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
In the ancestors-with-funny-names contest, I win.
I'd like to submit my entry. I'm descended from Brizella and Elkanah and Herschel and Hyman and Lascelles and Phelon and Wendel and Zephie. I'm related to Nonaine and Shanga and Bonica and Gilette and Disdale and Hughgine and Kadeed and Kermit and Kiesha and Wentworth and Leston and Naisha and Querida and Shamari and Sheree and others.
I think I have a shot at second place, and I'm willing to submit middle names to back that up.

I also like Fiona, but our neighbors have one (which wouldn't necessarily rule it out, of course), and I love Maria and Miriam, but I don't think Dylan does.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
I've always liked Chloe. If I had a baby girl (yeah, right) I'd name her Chloe.

While I think ita wins, I think I can get honorable mention for my great-great-grandfather, Colonel Maneus Lemley F. (Colonel was a name, not a rank), and my great-grandmother, Ann Hazeltine C.

Ooh--I forgot about my great-grandfather, who was Thomas Junior S., as opposed to Thomas S. Jr.

Because books.
My Mildred grandmother is "Mildred Alphonse" and we have Crowther as a male middle name on my dad's side, but I think that's as exotic as we get.
My mom, though, was reading a lot of Victoria Holt (I think) when she was pregnant with me, and was seriously considering naming me Laura Mai-Lon. (We're of completely Irish, British, and Scottish descent.)

My great-grandfather was Jesse James Lastname, because he was born in house the James was killed in, apparently. That's about as out there as it gets in my family.

Wait! I forgot Blomfield!
That's still only three, all from the 19th century, and only mildly odd.
