Remember when people used to select such weird names as John, Robert, Richard, James, etc.? I feel for teachers today, what with all of the “cool” names....plus they fiddle around so that the spelling varies as well.

In my work at high schools, I rarely encounter names such as John, Robert, Richard, James, etc., although the other day, I ran across a couple of teenagers named John and Johnny. It seems that in just about every other class, there's a boy named Angel. The Kylos will start showing up on high school roll sheets in a few years.

I bet the Angel kid didn't go by Evelyn.
