I have a Gifford - but he always used the name Stanley - just to make it really difficult to find his birth cert.. but my favourite is that old Saxon name -
Wolfran!!

Fancy that Barness Shorthousum, you have a Hephzibah as well. I'm still glad my parents didn't do the tree and decide to call me that!

And Susan, It's a good job they didn't call me Silence, they'd have been lucky!
