    And to be fair, “Getty” isn’t unbelievable at all for the given name of a Founding Father:

    • Gunning Bedford Jr.
    • Elbridge Gerry (fuck this guy in particular btw)
    • Button Gwinnett
    • Titus Hosmer
    • Francis Lightfoot Lee
    • Gouverneur Morris
    • Robert Treat Paine
    • Charles Cotesworth Pinckney
    • Richard Dobbs Spaight

    And plenty of non-Founding Fathers had similarly peculiar names. If “Images” weren’t such a common English word, I’d say even that would be arguable.
