HelpDashiell
Recently added this to my favs list after reading "The Maltese Falcon" and seeing "The Incredibles" in the same week... Dashiell Hammett is the author of the famous novel; Dashiell Parr is the speedy young hero from the movie. Ironically, both are nicknamed "Dash". (Thomas Edison also named his son Dash, though that was his full name... along with his two sisters, Dot and Dot. Edison was a Morse freak.)
Strangely, I couldn't find the name on this site... I found the information about the name on BabyNames, though I was a bit disgusted that it comes from the French "de chiel", for "page boy"... Even so, I still like the sound of the name (just as it's written... dash-ell).
I did submit it a few days ago, but I don't know how long it tends to take the webmaster to get submitted names up.
I'm just surprised that the first name of such a famous author is so rare. Maybe it has to do with that irritating meaning.
Anyways. Anyone else like this name?
