Cecil is from Welsh "Seissylt" from Roman "Sextus". There
are about ten men named "Cecil" in my home town of 4000
people. Remember the director, Cecil B. deMille?

Cecilio is Spanish masculine. Cecilia is Spanish feminine.
Cecile is French feminine. I have never heard of a female
named "Cecil".

I can easily imagine you
might have had a traumatic school experience as kids can be brutal.

Kids suffering from ignorance do have a tendency to be brutal.

I suppose you may have compensated by growing up to become a
lumberjack or a marines sargent?

I compensated by growing up to be six foot four. Judge Cecil
Neeley was indeed a marine corps general before he retired.

The main difference, then, between Cecil and John Wayne, is that
rattle-snake shooting Cecil is not so slow witted.

Actually, I've always thought the main difference between
me and John Wayne was the size of our feet. His were
something like 8 1/2. Mine are 13. My uncle said I would
have been a tall guy if I didn't have so much turned down
for feet.

Hey Wes, I just heard a sportscaster say that
one of the reasons that Oklahoma State lost to
Arizona is that they don't have any really big
players. Their biggest is only 6' 10". :-)

The reason OK lost is because, despite AZ's off-night loss to IL and
their friends the officials and the crowd, they were up against the
best team in college basketball.

Our biggest guy, Channing Frye, is listed variously as 6' 10" or 6'
11".

I wasn't so far off then. BTW I'm plagued with an oddball real name
myself which is why I used the pen name Asimov. However, I plead
ignorance of General and Judge Neeley? A famous american no doubt?
