By old-timey names, I mean ones that you don’t typically associate with anyone alive or younger than like 70.
Examples being:
- Burl
- Mildred
- Herbert
- Agnes
- Evelyn (not as rare at the others, but getting there)
I’ve always liked the name “Opal” but I’ve only ever known two in my life. I was like 10-12 at the time, and they were both pushing 90.
Agnes, Agatha, Jermaine and Jack.
I saw Jack, and I thought that’s pretty common, then realized I’ve never met a single Jack.
I also hope somewhere in the world there’s a gay couple named Jack and Dick.

I know a few Jacks (and a Jaques and 2 Jacobs) and, according to that wiki page, my experience is typical.
Jack was Biz Markie’s only young friend
Do you know which Jack is your favourite? You should have a contest determine your favourite Jack. A Jack-Off, if you will.
