Colorful Town?

[alzora]

I was reading an online list of internments in a particular American cemetery, and was astounded at the high concentration of creative names buried there. I thought I'd share the list. In light of the hundred-year rule, I thought maybe some of these would appeal to you...or amuse you.

I omitted the last names, so any double names that you see are first name/middle name combos:

Harlen
Obeath
Stokes
Tempie D.
Waitsel
Laughton D.
Para B.
Vinnie Mae
Byard Henry
Destie M.
Devault
Rosany
Mose
Cling
Creed H.
Delzie
Demadie I.
Dontie H.
Galen
Jeter W.
Perion
Perrin
Riller
Satter B.
Nina Clarice (just thought the combo was sweet)
Doxie
Roby Ninevah
Carmalee
Doshie D.
Nettie Lue
Eula Mae (cute combo)
Staples
Corletta
Dartie
Poppie (spelling!)
Pink W.

Hildred
Maple D.

Aw, some of these seem so cute/sweet.

Some nice names on here! Here's what I like and could see myself using as a first name or middle name:

Byard (middle)
Creed (middle)
Galen (middle and I know someone with this name)
Perrin (but probably as a nn for Peregrine)
Nina Clarice -- I think it's cute too
Corletta
Snow -- LOVE
Vester -- middle

Hmmm....I kind of like the Ellenore spelling. It makes Elle such an easy nn.
