You'd never make it. I'd rip your spine out before you got half a step. Those little legs wouldn't be much good without one of those.

I've probably mentioned this, but my DH went to college with a woman named Lasagna. She was a twin, and I'm blanking on her sister's name (it was not unusual).

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

How long ago was this? Maybe she was the person who invented Lasagna!

Ann, that's a ferret.

I knew a Brame in law school. He went by his middle name, Perry.

My great-grandfather's name (and my dad's middle name) is Prosper. I think it's not entirely unusual French name.

My dad's maternal grandfather was named Prime. (The bastardization of an Italian saint name by Irish Newfoundlanders apparently.)

And my aunt was married to an Expedite. (I just don't know.)

One of my great grandfather's name was Catherinus, but googling tells me it's both a first and surname. OK.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I don't know of any weird names in my family! Some unusual, but nothing too weird. And I imagine Rolande wasn't as unusual in Quebec at the turn of the century.

I may have to seize the cat.

My husband's second middle name is Prometheus. When we graduated from library school and they read his name out, everyone cheered.

We had an Anastasia in our family, nobody knows why, since the rest were all quite ordinary Irish Catholic names like Frances and Constance and Michael.

A wacky middle name is a good time.

My sister wanted me to name the Dillo "Edward Copernicus," but we didn't.

I know a family with kids named Tycho and Celeste. The mother is an astronomer.
