  The 'W' IN Herbert W Armstrong's name This information was sent anonymously to Dr James Philip Arnold in August 2022. In my article on HWA I had quoted the research of others:

“Herbert W. Armstrong was named after his mother's brother, Herschel Herbert WRIGHT. I speculate that the "W" in his name stands for WRIGHT...Herbert Wright Armstrong, a common practice to use the mother's maiden name as a middle name for her sons” (p. 55). And “Mr. Armstrong once said he did not have a middle name to begin with. But since there was another Herbert Armstrong in Oregon, he added the "W" which he took from the family surname of WRIGHT.” (p. 60)
  Accusations against HWA Disproven False accusers put to shame
