Thanks for those replies
Why I asked was ......
My G.G.Grandfather John Leat 1814 born Bath, had a daughter Emma Kezia b. 1858. I think John may have had a sister Kezia Leat b. 1821, not traced her father yet, he may have named his daughter after her ?

Kezia Leat married a Joseph Vile b. 1823 in Bath area, they went to live in Shoreditch, Middlesex. They had a daughter Esther Kezia Vile also an Elizabeth Vile b. 1855, she married Walter Brooks They had a daughter Kezia Brooks b. 1883, They lived around the Bethnal Green ares London, any takers out there
