Hey, come on, I love the name Beulah! I keep threatening to rename myself Beulah every time I meet ANOTHER Dana. I used to be the only one I knew, and then lo and behold, they all started coming out of the woodwork--there's another one in my sorority, and things get confusing sometimes. But thank God I'm not a Jennifer or a Lindsey or something really common like that!
But as for the original question, my dad just added an "a" to the end of his name, and voila. My middle name is my grandfather's (Ray, only with an "e" instead of a "y").
