What's sad is her brothers were ordinary old Michael, Thomas and William. I checked; a history of famous Houstonians says she was named "for the heroine of a Civil War poem written by her uncle Thomas Elisha". Still, she's a warning to all parents about bad baby name choices!

Heroine or not , what could her parents been thinking? Were they not capable of putting sounds together or did they just not care? After all, it was just a girl baby and who cared about those?
