I would just love to see a little Minna running around. That name is very dear to my heart.

My German Oma's name is Wilhemina and she goes by Minna. Love love love the name.

State names for boys and girls Vermont, Tennessee Georgia and Virginia and last names as firsts like Ford, Reagan and Kennedy (for girls anyway)

I think I would have a hard time restraining myself from laughing out loud if I heard a kid being called Vermont. Georgia and Virginia were already names before they were states.

Also, Reagan was already a first name. Reagan was one of King Lear's daughters in Shakespeare's King Lear.

Me too, 17:25. In fact, I did have a hard time keeping a straight face when I heard a large southern gentlemen shout across a shopping mall "Memphis! Austin! Git over 'ere!"

Just curious. How is this pronounced?

Short i, like minimum.

Really? I thought it was "Mee-nah"

15:42 - you are kidding, right?

Reagan/Regan reminds me of the Exorcist.

No. Way.

Mina would more likely be "mee-nah."

I've known two Minas (both 80+) and they pronounce it Mine-ah

17:25 Uh -- Georgia may have been named for King George, but Virginia was not named for king or queen Virgin but for the virgin land found by the first settlers at Jamestown.
