I just realized something odd:

I have four friends who have gone by the identity "November"... and none at all who have gone by any _other_ month.

What the hell, people. I demand a coherent explanation. :D

@zebratron2084 I'm pretty sure I can think of two people in the distant past who went by that exact name as well, and yeah. You don't see any other month names other than maybe May, if only because that's also a regular people name.

@Thaminga FWIW, I did know an "April" in high school but (a) that was her birth name and (b) there was nothing regular people about her*. >_>;;

(*My erotomaniac stalker. O_o A _nice_ stalker as such things go, but still.)

@zebratron2084 an ex-of-an-ex who was--well it's not PC to call her "psycho" but no really she was psycho--was named "September," which afaik was her birth name.

all I can tell you about November is, it's a magical month. ;)

@zebratron2084 people like November maybe? My mom’s middle name is May. And my friend Tober got the handle from using October as an online character.
