I grew up watching reruns of "The Wild, Wild West," with the male character Artemas
Gordon. It took me years to erase that from my head and get used to
Artemis as a female name / goddess. Your post is threatening to put me back years. I hope you're happy.
What's nagging at me is the general public's inability to spell names traditionally. I cringe every time I see
Francis listed as a girl's name. To expect people to differentiate Artemas as a boy's name and
Artemis as a girl's name is beyond my powers.
That said, Artemas
Robert and
Ptolemy (mn) are two irresistible young men. D*mn you.
