    most of those aren’t first names

      The last three, maybe (though I’m sure you could find someone with at least one of those as a first name), but everything before that are used at least irregularly.

        Earl is a real name. However, for this one, they explain in the series that he was supposed to be named Carl like his father, but due to sloppy handwriting he ended up being named Earl

          But Earl is a title, as is Carl.
