Dad just sent a list of the most popular baby names from several countries. He adds:
hey;
ALMA - a family name originating about 100 years ago in the Grider family
Bertha - Ya, I know-STOP LAUGHING -DAMN IT!! This was Grandma Ida's mother's name and she was cool.
Frederick - Grandma Ida's father's name who's surname was Adams and who fought in the Prussian Wars. Hey - Fred is kind a cool. right? Right? RIGHT? OK. Forget it.
Of course there is Joeseph who was one of the two German brothers who came into the Carolinas from Germany in about 1790 (actuall - shortly before - and caused all this mass of folks.)
And of course my all time favorites of Olaf and Quinn. Ya I know, but they would grow up strong and folks would respect them after a time for their streangth. Good seafaring men - one and all. Especially if they marry a Bertha kind of woman.
Ok - I'll go away now. Bye

He enlarged the font on all the names he liked. "Ida" was enormous. I love(d) my Grandma Ida. I don't think I'd use the name, though. Frederick Adams is an awesome name, though.
