What's in a Name?


Watching 'Sunny' (1930) on TCM with Marilyn Miller. My mom was named after her when Marilyn Miller died and I was named after my mom. It is very cool to finally see the moving picture image of the woman who is the source of my name. (My aunt Evelyn was named after Evelyn Nesbit) My grandma loved the (old time) movies and so do I!

[To a method actor] Darling, we have a 3 day schedule. There's no time to do anything but to do it.

Evelyn Nesbit? Ooh, racy. :)

We have someone named for Linda Darnell in our family.

It's funny how a name ages if it is strongly associated with one period.
