Corwin Alexander: Corwin is my husband's favorite name. It is the name he uses when role playing or doing re-enactment. He goes by Corwin more than he does his given name. Corwin is a good, strong Gaelic/Welsh name that isn't heard much. Alexander is the name of his twin brother and also a good, strong name for a diplomat, so if ever he wants to run for President and doesn't want to go by his first, he can still say C. Alexander for President. (See Alexander for President).
