VoyForums Announcement: Programming and providing support for this service has been a labor of love since 1997. We are one of the few services online who values our users' privacy, and have never sold your information. We have even fought hard to defend your privacy in legal cases; however, we've done it with almost no financial support -- paying out of pocket to continue providing the service. Due to the issues imposed on us by advertisers, we also stopped hosting most ads on the forums many years ago. We hope you appreciate our efforts.

Subject: Southern names

E-mail message from a reader:

My paternal grandparents may have
moved to Oklahoma, but they were
from Old Southern stock. My late
father's youngest sister was named
"Billie Lou".

I'm glad I was directed to your site
(two other fans were arguing over the
real name of Rogue of the X-Men comics:
"Anna Marie," which one said didn't
sound Southern and another disagreed).

One of Dad's older sisters was named
Lahoma.

I've never met another "Lahoma," but
when I used Google, I found out there
was a Lahoma, Oklahoma. (Military brat
here; sorry -- we were never stationed
near Oklahoma and I was there to visit
Granny only twice.)
