I worked at the infamous Central Falls High School for many years and a lot of the names were different. We had a boy whose first name was Junior, a Princess, Jerifer, Nevaeh which is heaven spelled backwards. Genesis, Xiomara, Beberly, and Milady. My DGD's name is Delilah. My DD's names are Felicia and Merri-Ellen.

In seventy two years I have never met anyone with my name--Ione--(I own). And do not ask me what I own because I would probably scream, after 12 years of hearing it in school. I have met many Iona"s , I was named after my great grandmother who"s last name was Drinkwater.

I love your name! My neighbor used to be a lady named Leila. I could NEVER rememer her name.

I am 73 and my (Italy born) father named me after one of the King of Italy's (at the time) daughters. He had four. There is another Yolanda on the Board who was named after the 1930s 40s dancing star with a partner by the name of Yolanda and Valez.

Mom was Arlene I'm Phyllis You don't here any of those very often. Although I knew 2 other Phyllis' when I was growing up - both older than me. Then just a year ago met a 9 year old named Phyllis. She looked at me and said she didn't like her name because it was an 'Old person's name"! her mother scolded her for her comment. lol I've never liked my name either, but could never figure out what to change it to. |
Growing up in the thumb in the 60s-70s, I knew a family who had a daughter named Onalee. They lived in Millington.
