What's in name? As a matter of fact, fate, and/or faith, the genesis of same is often more convoluted than one might imagine. For example,my family nickname "e;Bim"e; is a perversion of my great grandmother'smaiden name, Bevan. It was that family name my mother received as amiddle name from her English immigrant father, Thomas Gleaves. Motherliked it. In fact, she adored it as later events would validate.
