Americans seem to use surnames/family names for first names (Tyler, Taylor etc) which I have never really understood.

Did they just run out of first names :?:

My favorite 'American-style' first name is WALKER; presumably meant as a statement that the name bearer is able to walk (at least at birth anyway) :?:

A couple of days, I saw this one in the celebrity birthdays list my local newspaper has: Peter Bonerz. I would crack up randomly the rest of the day thinking about it.
