This morning’s name was, annoyingly, just a surname: Detweiler. I had the feeling that it was the name of a character in a film or tv show, possibly a detective (but that might just be from the shared det– in detective and Detweilerˆ).
Well, you wouldn’t believe how many Detweilers a Google search pulls up! But none of them in the first hundred pages seemed at all familiar to me. (Remember that the question is why the name popped up in my memory.)

Since your morning names tend to be famous people, it might be better to look at the Wikipedia page on Detweiler, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Detweiler. The most likely choice surely is Ducky Detweiler, a name made to be a morning name if there ever was one.

My earlier search got all these, but without striking any chord of recognition. But I’ll probably remember Ducky Detweiler from now on.

How about from ‘The Sound of Music’? Max Detweiler is the friend of both the Baroness and the Captain, and then schemes to get the family singing.

Now that’s a real possibility.

From Benita Bendon Campbell:
Nice idea, but I have no experience with the novel.

TJ Detweiler, from the cartoon series Recess?

Another nice idea, but I have no experience with the cartoon series at all.
