My big, manly, 6' 1", former Green Beret in the Korean War father has been saddled with the middle name Jean. Thank goodness his first name is masculine.

One of my great-great grandfathers was named Ebenezer Bean. I wonder if he ever got visited by 3 spirits on Christmas Eve?

The big guy at a company I used to work for many years ago was named Harry Weiner. His parents must have really hated him.
