Has anyone said LaSalle? Interesting that there was a fashion at one time for naming cars after early explorers of our continent. Do you think it was just because the names sounded fashionable, or did the car makers really want to honor the explorers?

I believe that 'LaSalle' (specifically) was named after the owner(s) of that company (I'm not close to my references), and that, although in that day and age they were more likely to associate with some perspective of honor, now it 'has become' a matter of the "trend" of the words' association and less about honor (unless your approaching a niche market ).

I hesitate to think what would happen if people learned my name ......
