Ah, those famous wet people from history--
Sir Francis Drake (circumnavigated the globe in the Elizabethan era)
Francis Ford Coppola (and his famously wet Godfather films)
St Francis of Assisi
Francis Crick (Nobel prize winner biologist)
Francis Bacon (kinda invented the scientific method)

All very wet 😂😂😂 also the artist Francis Bacon and his really wet paintings

Did the godfather fall into the font at the christening?

Francis Rossi - wet
Frank Bough - remember him?

A wet and wimpy name. Very unpleasant.

Really? I see it as a strong name but the only Francis I know in real life plays a lot of rugby.
