Wold have bene great if they used more unusual names, then again if they did, it would be more instances of those with such names, and would still involve trying to work out which one is which. I did mention the wife of an ancestor's sibling called Spanisher Robson. If more used Spanisher as a forename it would be more Spanisher Smith's everywhere.
I have an ancestors cousin called Melbourne Auber.
