Mylord can't come to school today

Over the past weeks I have started to trace the children we interviewed in the first phase. One thing that has me laughing out loud at times is the way in which the people in the communities here name their children. Very little English is spoken but people do give their children English names. Some of the highlights are listed below:

Warning
Abstain
Mylord
Godbless
Bequiet
Precious
Realize
Beloved
California
Superstitious
Permission
