My Grandpa Evenson would be 117 years old today had he lived. He came from a large Norwegian family, and by the time he was born his parents only had the oomph to give him a first name! So he gave himself a middle name - Ole! This was his dad's name and I am not sure if any of his brothers had that as a middle name already - but any which way - Grandpa claimed it for his own.
Blessed be his memory.
