Your boy chose it as his middle name?
That is lovely.
No, I had never heard of it before Sufjan Stevens. We went in Australia from Graham, Bruce and David to Sunshine and Raindance, and now there is the backlash with Ursula and Danton, so I am really pleased to find a way out through Sufjan.
The names in different countries are interesting. Americans have unusual names, not exactly like Ironback Ridge, but close enough, although I would like to mention Moon Unit (Zappa) and God (Kantner and Slick). The French are just not allowed to improvise (just as well?) and have to make do with Jean Michelle or Pierre Jacques.
