Real-world considerations

  • Spelling note: Sole.
  • Sol is not one name but at least two unrelated ones sharing a spelling: a Spanish/Portuguese word-name meaning "sun," and a Jewish short form of Solomon meaning, via Hebrew shalom, "peace." This project's girls #722 assignment corresponds to the former, but individual US birth records using this spelling cannot be traced to one lane or the other from the sources available here.
