The Letter "W"

Before you read this post, 

please complete the poll above.

Just for fun, would you leave a comment listing the number of women you know who have names beginning with the letter "W." The do not have too be friends, not even acquaintances . . . you have just heard their name.


Here's why I ask this.


My maternal grandfather's surname began with a "W."  His father's children just exploded with children, grand children, great grands, etc., etc., etc.


One of the men in the tree named his daughter Wanda. She was the only daughter in a family with 2,000,000 sons. Well, I exaggerate a bit, but I'll bet they could have made a basketball team with a deep bench.


So, here we have a woman not only with a surname beginning with a "W" but a  1st name beginning with a "W."


Fast forward a bit . . .  one of the brothers of this Wanda marries a woman named Wanda. Go figure?


That's why I asked about the "W" women's names you know. Here are sister-in-laws who share the same "W" name. To me, that is odd.


That has sure made it hard when I was doing my archived newspaper reading today for my Family Tree.


Oh, and two branches of the tree had sons with the "W" first names . . both William. And, they are living in the same basic area of the state   and they are pretty close to the same age . . . it isn't fun trying to figure which one of them is which either.
 
So, leave a comment with the list of women's names you can think of, right off the top of your head, that begin with a "W." And, they must women you have heard of with the name, not just a name you have seen in a baby book.

I wonder how many of you will repeat names . . . which is just fine by me.
