Help[Opinions] ...and Concord (m)
in reply to a message by DLB
That's all I can think of. I may be a huge history geek, but those battles were extremely famous and, to an American, anyway, probably the first thing that "Lexington" brings to mind. I can't imagine it as a name for a person; it's "the first battle in the American Revolution" to me.
Also, I tend to find -ington names in general to be annoyingly pretentious, although Lex is a decent nickname.

Ditto. We took a field trip or two there when I was a kid so all I can think of when I hear it is old canons and droning teachers. There are better ways to get to Lex.

That's what my brother always says! I asked him what he thought and he asked if his brothers name would be Concord.

"Brave, brave Concord..."
"You shall not have died in vain!"
"I'm not quite dead, sir."
"Well, you shall not have been mortally wounded in vain!"
"I think I could pull through, sir."
I think of this, and not the place or the grape, whenever I hear "Concord." Please tell me someone else knows what I'm talking about. :)
