Many years ago, wife pregnant, and we have no good ideas for boy's names. I'm at the point of blurting out names as a habit..."How about WalMart...Applebee...". Watching an ISU football game and I say, "How about Sage?". It was mostly a joke, but my wife loved it. And that is ultimately what we settled on. Our other son is named Parsley (just kidding). Anyway, i do not like the name Cedar. But the name Sage feels like it's in that same category...Thankfully I didn't blurt out Lafester.

Sage isn’t horrible. It could have been David, Todd, Bob, Seneca or any other quarterback we had.

My grandfather talked of a woman he knew named Iva Odor. I thought he was joking so just now I looked it up. Sure enough, Iva Myrtle Menefee married Algernon "Algie" Odor.

I knew a guy that had a cousin named "Timothy Burr" Always wondered if he became a tree trimmer.

My great grandpa's name was Aines. Pronounced Anus.
My wife's great grandpa's name was Adolph.

We used family names for all 3 of our kids, but decided not to use these 2.
