>I knew of a family in which all the children
had the same three initials- R.R.R.
Probably all the good stuff was monogrammed by a stutterer (stammerer, if it came over on a clipper a while back). This way, the parents can defer issues of inheritance until after they're conveniently indifferent.
"Ia" names. One that sticks in my craw from - I dunno - taht eternal arbiter of cultural progress, TV Guide? - was JohnNisha. Oy, the dysphony! Oscarina? Elmerette? Nancio? The mind recoils. :-)
Loving Spouse's family is replete with Karins and Rosemaries. Piles of 'em. My side of the family tumbleweed has no repeating units of which I know, but some dead weird monikers formed in the tectonic impact of Slavic on Germanic names. I got off real easy.
