National Earl Day 6/9

An English name that peaked in the 1920’s.  
Know any Earls?
Earl Kluge, Earl Scruggs, Earl Simmons (DMX), Earl Monroe, James Earl Jones
and Earl that the Dixie Chicks…well you know.
Speaking of the ladies, the female version of Earl?  Countess.
(for you folks in the UK)
And I’ll add Earl Monroe for any Knicks fans.
