I remember a bunch of years ago when I worked for a school district, we had these Character Counts signs EVERYWHERE. Maybe they still do. The pictures on them were really annoying, and I thought the whole program was kind of cheesy and lame, but I still had to look at them all the time. Anyway, not related at all to what I was going to say.
Character.
Name with character.
I woke up this morning and checked the poll results, and I was quite surprised. QUITE. Sister and I discussed yesterday (in between taking cabinet-sanding breaks) which name would have the least character. ”Wren,” she had said, and wrinkled up her nose.
Guess which name came in as the #1 Most Character-y name?!
WREN.
(Sister, you were way off I guess.)
Actually they were all four pretty close, which I thought was surprising. But anyway, here’s the percentages. (I wish I could get PollDaddy to export the pie chart for me to a format I could just import here, but so far I haven’t figured it out.)
- Wren – 28.72%
- Zerubabella – 26.6%
- Piper – 23.4%
- Helena – 21.28%
So, Helena clearly has the least amount of character. And it is now DELETED. I am pleased to see how well Zerubabella is doing in the running. You just never know…
