Joan was still a popular name in my generation and I knew several, so it doesn't occur to me as a name I'd like to see more often. I knew an Ira, but he was old twenty years ago, and is probably dead now.

I knew a Chester once, I thought his name was great!

All I can think of when I hear the name Chester is a guy who pushes his pregnant girlfriend off a boat because he doesn't want to be bothered by her.

There is a doctor at the home named Chester, but we call him Chet. Nice guy.
