  Yeah, the only place I heard it was from that story, Sigourney Howard, a peripheral character. No other Sigourneys ever in my experience.

    Is it not a historical name? Like people have great great grandparents with this name maybe?

      There is Sultana Sigourney of the Ummayad Caliphate, but I don’t know if that name would have been quite as popular in Western countries because I just made that up
