Maryelizabeth Clark was raised in Upstate New York, where she developed a strong work ethic, an appreciation for community, and a love for nature’s gentle beauty. She found herself constantly noticing names, wondering about their backgrounds, and trying to guess their origins. She acknowledges, “It became a quiet passion of mine—one that stuck with me through every chapter of life.” She moved to California to pursue a career in modeling and acting. The journey was exciting, challenging, and full of growth. Along the way, she and her husband often bonded over their shared curiosity about names.
While he researched the history of his own five-generation family name, they both realized just how difficult it could be to find clear, engaging information. That’s when the idea sparked: make it easy to research your name and get curated information about its meaning, history, and significance every month. The Club of Names provides a monthly newsletter (“The Name Drop”) that is all about you. As Mary Elizabeth explains, “When you subscribe to The Name Drop, our newsletter provides curated information just for you—to reveal all the hidden layers about your name, with exciting information delivered each month!
