No. How about Gipple?

Had a sister named Dolores?

No, but Colonel Peters had a daughter named Fonda.

We used to go over to the Varner-Hogg Plantation in west Columbia. Kids always found it funny that a father would name his daughter "Ima Hogg!!"

Ima hog.
Yousa hog.
That’s what my grandparents use to say.

Haven’t met a Mulva. Back when I was dating, girls had what you might call standard names - Debbie, Gail, Linda, Diane, Maryann, Adele, Donna, Mary. These days girl names have gotten a bit different. Just among the tennis kids I’ve met a Mackenzie, Sidney, Peyton, Elle, Lacey, Janay, Hadley, Hannah, Lexi, Leanna, Andy, and a few that don’t come to mind right now.

Of course, what I call standard girl names would sound odd to someone from the 1920’s and before. I wonder what common names were in use back then. My Grandmother’s first name was Willie. Born in about 1890.

Laqueefa

Kamala.

Princess

Sparkle.

Back in the trading days, it was my tough job to entertain clients in these dancing establishments. I got to know many young ladies that worked there. Strictly table dances, and nothing more. Of course, I had my favorites. How could I not? I admired many a backside (and front side). Grace was spectacular…visually.

My mom was a Cajun named Lucy Giroir (pronounced "ger-wa"). Her sisters were Undean and Yunis.

I always joked the Undean Giroir and Yunis Giroir sounded like medical conditions.

I had a salesman like you. Okie. Always swore the customer demanded it. Right. 'Course, it mighta been true...with Okies.

I always though Regina (with a long i)

Bovary? Loleola?

Kitty

Cherry. Had that one years ago. She sounded just like Her name. Beautiful. .

my paternal grandmother was born in the 1890s and her name was Willie Pearl ...
