I was just thinking about all my old Witness friends and how many of them have weird Bible names. I mean, who the hell outside of a Witness would name their child "Ephriam" or "Hezekiah" or "Elijah"?
I guess they don't have to worry about being picked on by the kids at school for their names because most Witless kids don't go to school anymore, lol.
I used to have a love affair with the name Matthew.
