My husband's pick for our DD was June. I didn't like it at the time but it's grown on me and definitely on the list if we have another girl.

Rona is either poised for a huge comeback or will never be used again.

My mom is Ruth Edythe.


There was Dorcus in our church growing up. She was an old lady at the time and played the organ for services. My brother and I thought her name was hysterical as kids.
