Personal experiences with the name Keturah: | Edit

My friend's name is Keturah and she is constantly having to spell it and tell the meaning and why her parents gave her that name. But I really like the name.
I found this name when researching my family tree - used in 1887, Zillah Katurah being one of twins, the other being called Joshua Harris. Very modern sounding though!
