I have known and know:
One Rabbit,
One Rooster,
One Pony,
One Goat,
One Human, (Hope's George)
And one abomination, (George Bush)
all called George.
George is a good name.... but why are more animals are called it than people I do not know....(not that I would call George Bush a person, I am sorry I have associated you with that Bastard)
The name is Greek, and means "Farmer"
George has 33 variant forms: Egor, Georas, Geordi, Geordie, Georg, Georges, Georgi, Georgie, Georgio, Georgios, Georgiy, Georgy, Gheorghe, Giorgi, Giorgio, Giorgios, Giorgius, Goran, Gyorgy, Gyuri, Igor, Jerzy, Jiri, Jorgan, Jorge, Jorgen, Jurgen, Jurek, Jurik, Yorick, Yorik, Yurik and Ygor.
The name "George" is also associated with Saint George, a knight who became the patron saint of England, who achieved legendary status through the medieval story of his struggle with a fire-breathing dragon, symbolic of the devil.
George was a royal name in England, and in America, George Washington made it as popular.
Giorgio (jee-OR-jee-oh) is an Italian form.
Use of the Geordi variants may be influenced by the character Geordi LaForge on the TV series "Star Trek: The Next Generation". See also Joren, Keoki, and Yuri. Singer George Michael; and actor George Clooney. etc.
Sorry if you think this is weird.
I just was thinking about this while washing up.
Random things pop in to my mind while washing up. :)
