During my high school years, I briefly attended a private boarding school in Tennessee. The school had been there for ages, with the same southern families sending generations of kids there. Dunno what it is about the deep south, but there were some decidedly odd names:
McIntyre Bridges
Quintin Stimpson
Woody Johnson (really and truly)
Jet Tune and his brother Julian Tune
Holt Hall
Buzzy Wolfe
J. Hill (no name, just the letter) and his brother Moe Hill *snort*
Dickie Park
Casey Jones
Fay Binning (this was a guy)
Lep Andrews
Tuck Hord
Kendall Hayes and brother Knox Hayes
Forrest Ladd (goes by Frosty)
John Hurt (not THAT one!)
Alton Oschner
Hutch Carter
Crit Currie
Minos Fletcher
CHIP MONK!!
Perkins Trousdale
Sputt Hooper
In later years, I once met a young woman named Baretta, and I know a guy who goes by Putt (real name James).
