I noticed that a lot of older/traditional names are coming back. Just to maybe give some ladies who like those kinds of names some ideas.. what are/were your grandparents names??

I'm way late on this pots, but...
Neva Maria
Roy Gillman
Leslie Duane (though we didn't know this until after he died - he always said his name was Duane Leslie and went by Dave)
Marguerite Ann (though she went by Billie)
How strange, I just realized I don't know DH's. They died years and years and years before he was born.
I actually got both of my grandmother's names: Gina Vincenza and one of my grandfathers was Vincenzo (although people called him Jimmy) so I got a pretty good family name package deal. My other grandfather was Michele (Michael in an Italian form)
Sorry...forgot DH's...
