I met a man today whose name was Lyndon. He was in probably in his late thirties. I know a couple of Lyndons under the age of ten, but I've never met anyone older than that with this name before. I thought that was neat, though I'm not really a fan of the name.

Also, I ran into some kids I used to babysit for. Here's the sibset.

Hannah Jane (16)
Clara Elizabeth (14)
Holden James (12)
Isabel Grace (8)

I think of Lyndon B. Johnson.

My nephew is called Lindon and he is ten. He was named after an uncle who was killed many years ago and would be in his early 60's by now, if he were still alive.

I love Lyndon! I also like Linden on a boy.

Of the sibset, I'm not crazy about the names. Hannah, Jane, and Clara are so dry sounding, and James, Elizabeth, and Grace as mns are just so overdone. I don't like Catcher in the Rye, so I'm not a fan of Holden, either. I do love Isabel!

My husband's uncle is a Lyndon. I think he's in his late thirties / early forties. I'm don't care for the name, though it's ok.

I like that sibset, though I don't care for Holden.
