Yes Bree. Clement Clarke Moore is correct.
I noticed that he is frequently listed as Clement C. Moore so I felt I wasn't breaking the rules of the games by using the initials of the first and last names only. If that wasn't the right thing to do, please let me know.
I have no problem with it, Raggedy! Now that I think about it, a lot of 19th-century American writers were known by triple-barreled names -- like Ralph Waldo Emerson, Henry David Thoreau, and Edgar Allen Poe -- and I wouldn't have any objections if they were identified as "RE," "HT," and "EP," respectively.
But until we get a ruling on this from fealola, as the game's creator, I'll play it safe and use:
A H
