Re: "Old man names" ... Is a resurrection in order?
crushing on Roger these days.
Ralph I would love, but for the vomit connotation. And, I knew a very creepy kid named Douglas (nn Dougie, no lie), so I cannot picture it is good conscience. But, I too love the dusty names and wish they would be brushed and shined again in popular society. ______________________________________________

Ralph is just so awful that my disgust turns to pity and then tenderness and then love. Douglas I always hated, but I had to write these names down so many times over the summer, I fell in love with how the "Douglas" flowed from my pen; it became so beautiful, so rounded and smooth and gentle. That's the summer I realized I loved Douglas and hated Alexander, which I also had to write a million times.Dougie is THE perfect name for a creepy kid. Like Hollywood perfect.
