Minding my own business, I stumbled across another offspring named Dashiell — part of my decades long and quite casual survey of the name surfacing in the population. I’m sure someone in the right studies program could make something out of it all, maybe even nail down a degree, but it won’t be me.
I report, and move on.
This time I was poking around IMDb and noticed that C. Thomas Howell has a son named Dashiell Howell. Born January 2, 1997.
And I had no clew that C.T. was a child rodeo star. They ought to stick him in one of the Yellowstone-esque shows. Anyone who can ride a horse. . . .
