I know or have known women with all four names, but they are either baby boomers or boomer parents' ages and someone's grandma or great aunt.

Editor's note: This article was originally published on May 18, 2021. It has since been updated. School bus driver Kenneth Corbin was honored as a hero by local South Carolina officials for keeping his cool during an armed hijacking on May 6, 2021. However, Corbin insists he was simply doing his job and that the real heroes are the 18 children who were on board the bus during the high-pressure encounter. According to ABC News, Corbin—who has been driving school buses for Richland School District Two for the last few years—was on his normal bus route on the day of the incident when a man ran onto the bus, pointed a rifle at him and ordered him to drive to the next town.
