Re: [gatortalk] Another Reason to Cheer this Saturday

Congratulations!

Looks like having you for a dad wasn't too big of a handicap :)

Paula and I will be cheering the "top of the Gator 'a'", Zebulon.  Congrats to your daughter for her accomplishments.

 

And, I think Zeb is a great name.  There is a Zeb living across the street from us in Maggie Valley, NC and a lot more Zebs in Haywood County.

It is a lot more common in N.C. than Florida; Zebulon Vance was a famed Civil War general from N.C. There is even a town, Zebulon, NC located just off of I-95.

Originally, Zebulon was the name of one of Jacob's sons in Genesis, and - hence - one of the twelve tribes of Israel. The name must not have caught on as much as Benjamin or Joseph.

The Pike of Pike's Peak fame was named Zebulon, as was his father.

That's about all I can add!

-Zeb
