Paromita... I would not have expected that name out of Mississippi!
ReplyDeleteYes, Paromita. and Libell. I wonder if it's pronounced like libel.
ReplyDeleteThere's a lot of "iss" sounds in the names, and lots of double Ls - including Libell, which I can't decide if it is a portmanteau of "Liberty" and "bell" or "Libel" with two Ls. Or does it rhyme with dribble?
ReplyDeleteI had to laugh at Miss Alabama! I know several Mary Something's.... :) Mary Elizabeth , Mary Catherine, Mary Claire, Mary Beth....
