Re: Weldon, Hilton, Chester (ETA)
in reply to a message by Bear
I like Sutton, Alden, Leland, Hobart, Digby, Neville, Clarence, Wilmot, Mycroft and Llewellyn. Alden is my favorite of these. Leland, Hobart, Neville and Clarence are all in my top five out of these.I almost suggested Lowell but it didn't have the feel that I thought she wanted. Lowell never has felt scholarly or upper class to me when I hear it. Jarvis I like the sound of but I can never get the image of a butler out of my head. I've met Sutton's, Leland's and Hobart's before. I've met more dogs named Hobart than humans but that doesn't mean that you shouldn't use it.Also I love the idea of taking surnames from your own family tree.

Shucks. I never connected Lowell with a sad place in Massachusetts before. It's Jarvis' butleriness that I love about it. I put it in the same category as Jasper and Jeeves. :-D
