Re: Weldon, Hilton, Chester
in reply to a message by molly
I know a guy named Weldon and as far as I know, no one has ever given him a hard time, mispronounced it, etc...it seemed pretty normal to me.Chester makes me think of a horse or Nimitz...there is also a Hustler magazine cartoon called "chester the molester", I have no clue why I know that but it would make me think twice.

Ah... So THAT's where the term being a chester came from? Only ever heard it from 1 source and it was an American...

Lol, I've definitely heard "Chester the molester" before, but Lester has always seemed much more like a molester name to me!

I've never heard Chester the molester before. I have heard Lester the molester before. The name Lester has always felt icky to me. Chester actually reminds me of a friendly country boy or a friendly dog. I've met at least two dogs named Chester. I still think that it would be a good name for a boy even though I've met more dogs named Chester than humans.

Agreed. Lester feels ickier. Chester feels quaint and almost naive.
