Overall: What's most interesting about this guy is his unusual name, which the article doesn't explain. Perhaps someone will figure it out when we run it. Andrew🐉(talk) 15:54, 5 July 2024 (UTC)
Looking further at this, I find a source which comments on the name without really explaining it. It's The Strangest Names in American Political History and there are three of them. What a great triple hook they would have made.... Andrew🐉(talk) 21:13, 5 July 2024 (UTC)
- In Latin his name is "Fifth and the Last". It would be interesting to see all three, though I’m not sure how it would be done. Aquabluetesla (talk) 02:09, 12 July 2024 (UTC)
