Never realized how many Iris I got strictly for the name.
Baby Blue Marine -- I like Marines.
Best Bet - favorite expression of someone I used to know and affectionately remember.
Best Friend - she gave me the gift certificate I used to buy it.
Bullwinkle - still a favorite.
Chicklet - favorite gum as kid.
Dancing Bunnies - I dunno, something about the name tickles me.
For Patsy Lou - my mother's name was Patricia Lou and her family called her Patsy.
Gizmo the Gremlin - the movie
Killarney Green - reminds me of a trip to Ireland taken in 1992.
Lest We Forget
Loon Lake - okay, don't be startled, but...we have mental illness on my father's side of the family and all of us--even those with the illnesses--look for humor where we can. We figure laughter is healthier than wrung hands.
Men in Black - the movie
Mister Roberts - the movie
Murrah Memorial
Have Navajo family.
Navajo Code // Navajo Velvet
Obi-Wan Kenobi
Off to the Races - sister loves horse racing.
Polish Princess - my mother was Polish.
Private Eye - Nick Charles, Boston Blackie, Marlowe, Mannix...lots more, but you get the gist.
Shindig - never missed that show.
Made a memory bed for my sister's daughter Crystal (died 2010) and stepson Tracy (died 2008). Thankful to people like Tom and Arlyn for helping make it beautiful.
Bought a slew of Iris specifically for the names of or associations with Crystal's four children, but not listing here because they are going to my sister when she and her husband buy a house later this year.
Crystal Beauty // Crystal Fountain // Crystalyn
Dark Crystal // Tracy's Sunshine
