Cold Comfort Farm - Stella Gibbons

"I think if I find that I have any third cousins living at Cold Comfort Farm (young ones, you know, children of Cousin Judith) who are named Seth, or Reuben, I shall decide not to go."

"Why?"

"Oh, because highly sexed young men living on farms are always called Seth or Reuben, and it would be such a nuisance. And my cousin´s name, remember, is Judith. That in itself is most omnious. Her husband is almost certain to be called Amos; and if he is, it will be a typical farm, and you know what they are like"

 

I have a slight premonition about the first names of the Starkadders ;D.
