Oops, I missed a space there.

In case anyone really doesn't know, Baby Name books are the sort
of thing sold on the counter at greeting card shops; they consist
of lists of names with what purport to be their origins and
meanings, so that parents can find out that their favorite name
means "Mighty Defender" or "Beautiful Blonde" and so on. For
some reason, names never turn out to mean "Dull Accountant"
or "That Annoying Co-Worker". :-)

Ah, I see. They were around many years ago but more often than not, in my
limited experience, the meanings don't stay the same :-)

I thought 'babyname books' was something I'd missed, it makes sense now!

ah! like the baby name books that give the meaning of Brendan
as "prince", when the actual meaning is "stinking hair"? yes,
all names *must* have pleasant meanings ;)
the meaning of my son's name is 'tear' or 'little drop of
water'.

I pinged a host that wasn't there
It wasn't there again today
The host resolved to NSA.

It'll be good to see the pictures Mary, it sounds very unusual.
