The late Zig Ziglar talked about names of people foretelling their grown-up personality and character. In some African country, for example, children were named for the day of the week they were born. Male children born on Tuesdays were given a name that roughly translated to ornery, while male children born on Sunday were given a name that roughly translated to God-like. According to Zig, 60 percent of men in prison in that country were born on Tuesday, while over 70 percent of men in the clergy were born on Sunday! All that is to say that Grace Gantner's parents endowed her with the perfect name.
