Wesley
Literal meaning"Like a panther, a sleek, crouching panther. In fact, it is a panther. Jesus! No, wait, it's just some panther; I'm looking the wrong way."
HistorySeen written in fiery letters across the boiling clouds of an angrily crimson night sky by a drunken tramp in 1222 AD, the name Wesley was originally used ineffectually to refer to a breed of goose, before being mispronounced by a registering officer.
