    Literally considering naming my incoming daughter Rhoda (of Rhodes) I think it’s a fine name. Also shares a name with a girl in classic literature.

    I assume North and South Carolina are green because you can name your kid just “Carolina”, so why is only one of the Washingtons green if we’re allowed to use partial names?

    Edit: Also Columbia is a name

      To be fair it’s his last name, and also like his agent name, right? But I do think Utah as a first name is SICK. But I’m from there sooo… lol
