I was curious earlier when someone asked about family names and I wanted to see if there were any repeats in our family, so I figured I'd share the list.


My dad's family:
Knute Otto - my great-grandfather
Nellie - great-grandmother
Knute Otto [Otto] - my grandfather, married Vonda - my grandmother
Paul Erik (uncle) [married to Sarah], Robin (aunt) [married to Vincent], Timothy Glenn [Tim] (my dad), James [Jim] (dad's half-brother [different father])

Cousins:
Otto (married Amy)
Timothy [Timmy] (married Rebecca [Becky])

Tammy
Tiffany

John Mark
Anthony Michael
Courtney Faye
Steven James

me: Lindsay Rebecca
brother: Michael Paul


Mom's family:
Charles [Charlie] - my great-grandfather
Hazel - great grandmother (several sisters including Maude, Grace and about five more whose names I don't remember)
Three children: Floyd, Donald [Don], and Margaret Lavangie (my grandmother) [don't ask...the mn is soooo weird]
Margaret married Melvin (called Pic, which takes way too long to explain)
Three children: Terry (aunt) [married to Phil], Gerry (uncle) [married to Corrine], Kim (my mom)

My grandfather also had a TON of siblings whose names I'm not 100% sure of. The only ones I know for sure are my grandfather (Melvin), William (Bill) and Lola (Lol).

Cousins:
Holly (Married to Jeff; two daughters: Kelsey Nicole and Katelyn Elizabeth [Katy])
Andrea
------
Craig

me & my brother

my great-uncle Don had five children, so I'll share those names, too:
Kathy, Paul, Susan, Donna, and Mark


Oh and the one cool last name from my family that I love is Stratton. I don't know why, but I absolutely love the name :).

I love the name Corinne. It's one of my best friend's names, and I think it's so old fashioned and pretty. =)
