Help[Opinions] Re: Who IS Sylvia Likens, anyway? (m)
in reply to a message by Peachy Girl Steph
She was a young girl who was tortured and murdered by the woman who was supposed to be watching her (as well as one of her sons and a couple neighborhood boys).
There is a (fiction) book "The Girl Next Door" by Jack Ketchum that is loosely based on the case.
So Sylvia herself wasn't a bad person, but it's tied to a horrible crime.
If you wanted to read about it, here's the wikipedia page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Murder_of_Sylvia_Likens

I kind of figure that every semi-popular name out there has something horrible tied to it somewhere along the line. It just may or may not be memorable or newsworthy.
Not gonna let it stop me from liking a name unless it's the only association people have with the name.
