Fantastic Names From The Past: 1949-1951 edition

 It's been a while since we last pored through old yearbooks for fantastic names, and I do believe it's high time we did it again.  So today we're looking at some yearbooks from the state of Washington, dated 1949, 1950, and 1951. 

For what it's worth, the owner of these yearbooks had a rather unremarkable name, Mary Jane. But such a mundane moniker didn't seem to stop her from being semi-popular...

But I do have to wonder... did MJ ever feel a little envious of her fantastically-named classmates?
