Advice: what would Giles' mother be named?
Anyone have a good name for Giles' mother. I have Faith's PoV and she thinks of Giles as, well, Giles. It's sort of odd, in that context, referring to his mother as Mrs. Giles.

I know she wasn't born in the 1890's but that should provide you with some nice old fashioned names :)

Hmmm, I'd go with my grandpa's sister's name but I think Avis would make people think of the car rental place.

I really think Giles' mother would have an old fashioned but sweet name like Nelly unless she's a mean bitch then she'd have one of those names that sound like a sharp command.

I can see Faith rolling her eyes at a name like that :)

I remember when my friend switched from Debbie to Deb. Dad and I were traveling together to Michigan for a family visit. After I told him she was changing what she wanted to be called, he started teasing me with "So,when you see Debbie, tell Debbie ..." and so on.

Helen has shown up a couple of times but I'm rather liking Margaret. Faith could call her Meg or Maggie and get a frosty, "It's Margaret" in response. ;-)
