My mothers best friend growing up her Dads real name was Shirley. EVERYONE called him Red. He was a bear of a man. Only reason I knew his name was Shirley because my Mom told me.


I bet he got a kick out of the Airplane movie.

Naming kids after firearms manufacturers is ridiculous. My sons Glenlivet and Talisker would kick my ass if I'd done that to them.

I gifted my long time hunting bud a Springfield. He loves that gun, named it Dusty Springfield...

Not sure about gun names for kids. I do know a guy who's first name is Colt...

Oh yeah, I like to warm mine up a bit. On a cool fall morning there is nothing like a warm Dicken's Cider. My wife likes to let hers ferment for a while before she has it. Yup, she prefers a hard Dicken's Cider.

My wife often mentions craving a Dickens Cider. I've been meaning to see if I can find some on Amazon.

I wanted to do so; but, my wife told me, in no uncertain terms, that there's no way she could ever warm up to two kids named Lorcin and Chiappa.

Dad? Why is my sister's name 'Daisy'?

Because that's your mom's favorite flower. Why do you ask Winchester M70?

pert near all my family wears the name of this Patent holder:

'Cousin' Dr. Edward Maynard. We've been carrying the name since John Maynard came here in the mid 17th C.

I have a daughter and two sons. Son #1 is Gunnar Benjamin and #2 is Steyr Jensen. Both have a family name and an cultural/heritage name included as part of their first/middle names.

No, my daughter is not named after a Steyr rifle model.... don't even go there!
