Speaking of Temperance…I’ve discovered three U.S.-born people named Prohibition.
None of them were actually born during the U.S. Prohibition (1920-1933), though. They were all born in the 1880s, while the temperance movement was still on the rise.
Prohibition Campbell (female) born on June 27, 1882, in Iowa.
Ernest Prohibition Manhart (male) born on November 22, 1886, in North Dakota.
Albert Prohibition Sparkman (male) born on April 28, 1887, in Tennessee.
I’ve also found nearly two dozen baby girls named Carrie Nation, presumably after radical temperance advocate Carrie A. Nation (1846-1911). They were born around the turn of the century or a little later, and most came from Texas. Three examples:
Carrie Nation Palmer, born on August 8, 1906, in Texas.
Carrie Nation Hartzell, born on July 7, 1909, in Indiana.
Carrie Nation Brooks, born on December 4, 1901, in Oklahoma.
In Idaho’s 2003-2009 annual reports, the heading of the unique names section was “Selected Unique Names, Yewneek Spellings.” For 2010, it was lengthened to “Selected Unique Baby Names, Yewneek Baybee Spellings.” Aren’t these a bit snarky for an official state document…?
Looking for a set of baby names with something in common? If so, here are some 6-letter anagram names for you to check out!
Anagrams are words that contain the same set of letters, but not in the same sequence. For instance, the words “listen,” “silent,” and “tinsel” are all anagrams of one another.
Anagram names can be a neat option for siblings — particularly multiples (like twins and triplets). They’re also a clever way to connect a baby name to the name of an older relative (e.g., grandpa Weston, grandson Townes).
Below are hundreds of six-letter names (collected from the SSA’s huge database of U.S. baby names) that happen to be anagrams of other names.
