Proper Names, Improper Uses

Oren N. Dalton

Abstract

Leonard R. N. Ashley presented a quiz titled "The Proper Name in the Proper Use" in the February 1995 issue of Word Ways. I worked it. I did my best, and although my answers differ somewhat from Ashley's anyone who has (or has had) a teenage daughter and/or son will surely agree that my answers come as close to the mark (whoever she is) as Ashley's.
