My mom's family had 11 kids and dad's family had 7. No uncle Larry. I have a zillion cousins - no Larry. Cousins' kids - no Larry. In laws - no Larry. My brother in law, however, has a brother named Larry. But that is no relation to me.  I do have:

 

Aunt Olga

Aunt Gertie

Uncle Doc (real name Dorris)

Aunt Sadie

Great Uncle Mitri

My mom was one of 10 kids, my dad only 2 of them. My MIL was one of 8 and I'm not sue how many FIL had, but probably at least 8. NO Uncle Larry's anywhere. No inlaws named Larry, no cousin Larry's, nothing. The closest I'd come is my older brother's best friend was named Larry.

My relatives (& DH's) are all from the hills of KY. We have some VERY, VERY weird names along the line.

On my side some of the weirder ones were:
Uncle Cletus
Uncle Otho
Uncle Clifton
Uncle Lonnie
Uncle F.M. (he NEVER used his name but people thought it was Francis Marie)
Uncle John L (not just John, but John L)
Aunt Arthenia
Two Aunt Maudie
Aunt Mamie

On DH's side (can't remember them all) but some weird ones were:
Aunt Orene
Aunt Dixie
Uncle O'Dell
Uncle Cleon
and his mother's name was Belvia.



So yeah.....Larry would be too normal for our two families!!! ROTF.gif

Pam - you mention all those weird names coming from the hills of Tennessee - that is where my uncle Doc (Dorris) came from. His last name: Morris. I hear all his sibs had weird names too, but I don't know them. Doc married Olga. He had one eye. He was one of my favorites.

Dh is the Uncle Larry in our family.  The question made me smile!
