first guess was Vlad the Impaler. Got onto the Biblical path and was flabbergasted when “John the Baptist” didn’t solve it. Never realized there were that many Johns, and only got it trying to fill out as many related words as I could think up

How could you run out of four letter words

You’re Australian

Root is a dirty word to you people

American Life
American Days
American Boys
American Girl
American Show
American Cars
American Feud
American News
