Happy Halloween! Scavenger Hunt
Okay, if anyone wants to join in, here's how it works. Go to the Search feature on the main page of this site www.behindthename.comUsing the Search feature or just perusing through the names database, find a name which could have some connection to Halloween, either because it means something spooky or because it belongs to a person (either real or fictional) of a spooky nature.REMEMBER! Use ONLY names from the BtN database. Post the name you've found under my own posting for "Hecate", so we have a Halloween name-chain. :)-- Nanaea
