I meant more for NC. Doesn't matter. The name frequency looks very much how I'd expect it to be in Blighty.

>>Hey, I used to know a Welsh/North Carolinian guy called Karl Moose. Is that a common name there? His dad (ex-GI) was from NC while his mum was from Llandudno in N. Wales. Visited his home once. In his back garden there was what we call a railway brake wagon but you guys call a caboose. So it was "Moose's Caboose".
