I think that's cute (I love Salinger, though), and it probably would go over a lot of people's heads anyway.

And then could you imagine if she had neices & nephews? They would really have an Aunt Jemima!!

Here are a few off the top of my head:

BOYS (I'm better @ these)
  • Damon
  • Justin
  • David
  • Eric
  • Van
  • Andrew
  • John (but not Jonathan)

GIRLS
  • Annah
  • Ashely
  • Elizabeth (Beth for short)
  • Jane

I'm not feeling real creative right now. I think it's really cool when people have names that have some type of meaning, whether it's a family name, there's a story about a literary character, etc.

I don't particularly like different spellings of names, because that has to be annoying going through life correcting it all the time. My sister's first name is Alyson & I really like that spelling, but no one ever gets it right.
