Had a teacher whose middle name was Anzac, because he was born on Anzac Day.

We recently did some research on a man named Federal (he was born 1901).  They called him Fred :)

My 9x Great Grandmother was called Eulalia Furze. I kind of like the name! ;D

Edit: I forgot about Sexey Pool!

I just found a Eulalia Furze too! My 7x Great Grandmother (b. Somerset, circa 1695) Interesting name.  Eulalia possibly Spanish :) No idea about the origins of 'Furze' It was her maiden name, married a John Burston.

oh, and just to add -

I have an Ancestor named Flaad, a 7x Great Grandfather named Eliphalet (have no idea how to pronounce, so I just call him Eli), a 5 x Great Grandmother Comfort (named after her gr gr Grandfather), and relatives Thankful, Mercy, and Ichabod

Also, a 4x Great Grandmother named Argent, and a 3x Great Aunt Plazy Bedingfield Ellis

My son has a Great Grandfather Ransom.
