Summary:
"Since 2010 I have photographed family names in graveyards and been continually fascinated by naming. Among the nearly three thousand names I have recorded, a fair percentage of them are antonyms. If a characteristic was powerful enough to become the basis of a name, often its exact opposite was true. Often these names are passed on with no record of their origins, including my own prickly name nettles."--23Sandy website.
