Gelacio… Hard at Work!
Some names just make you curious, and that’s exactly what happened when I first met a man named Gelacio. (pronounced Helacio) I had picked him up for a short Uber trip several months ago, and right away, his name caught my attention. It sounded Italian to me, but I quickly learned that Gelacio was born in Mexico before moving to the United States and eventually settling in New Jersey and then in Southwest Florida. Even in that short ride, it was clear that he was a hardworkin
Bisher… Bearer of Good News!
I stopped by a car dealership recently just to look at some used cars, but I ended up meeting someone far more interesting than any vehicle on the lot. His name was Bisher, a name I had never heard before. Right away, it caught my attention.

He will serve you well!!! Bisher was born in Amman, Jordan, t
Rory, Warren and Jason… Jet-Ski Adventure!
It was a normal day of driving until I picked up three guys with easy, familiar names—Rory, Warren, and Jason. Nothing unusual at first glance.

They were dressed head to toe in festive green, clearly ready to celebrate, but now just as ready to head home and relax. As we drove, we began talking, and I quickly realized their story—and their names—were worth remembering. One of the sisters was named Delaine. While her name may sound somewhat familiar, I hadn’t seen it spelled that way before. S
Ciaran… A Ray of Sunshine!
Recently, I had a passenger with a name that I hadn’t seen before…Cairan, pronounced “Keer-en”. His family is extremely Irish and his name, Ciaran, is a Celtic name which means “little dark one”. With his dark hair, the name seems to fit perfectly. But he likes to think that he is more of a “ray of sunshine”. And, after chatting with him for several minutes, I’d have to agree! He grew up in New Hampshire where music has always been a huge part of Ciaran’s life. His father wa
