Does anyone know when the name "Ethel" first appeared in the lexicon? The reason I ask is that the gag in Shakespeare in Love about "Romeo and Ethel the Pirate's Daughter" rang untrue to me, and I wondered when Ethel made its first appearance? Was it on "I Love Lucy?" ;-) Or was she Cain and Abel's little known sister?
