The next day when at dinner, for it was generally at meal-times Teddy chose to make his observations, he looked round the table appealingly,-- 'What's the very ugliest name that could be given a boy?' 'Sakes alive!' ejaculated his grandmother. 'And who may you be wanting to christen?' 'It isn't for a baby; a boy about as old as me. What do you think's an ugly name?' 'I don't think any name is very ugly,' his mother said. 'If you like a person, their name always seems to fit. I knew two boys named Tobiah and Eli. I didn't like the names at first, though they are Bible ones, but when I got to know and like the boys I liked the names.' 'I want a much more hideous name,' asserted Teddy; 'some name that would describe a very wicked person.' 'I hope you are not going to call any one by it,' observed his grandmother suspiciously. Teddy lifted his blue eyes up to her solemnly. 'I expect I'll find one for myself,' he said; and nothing more could be got out of him.
