Some parents are a little cruel.when in Maitland there was a family of carpet layers-grandfather,father and son.They were the Wall family so son was Walter-just say the full name a little fast.
Then moving to QLD the Pipe family called their son Dwayne.
I also met a delightful 90+ women whose name was Atracta.I said what an unusual name for the early 1900s.She told me she changed the spelling of her name.Father was a grazier.her brother was Plough.
