COOL!
Excellent teaser! Easy when one looks up the answer. Simple ones are sometimes the hardest.
Good one jazz!
Good teaser!
I had no idea
Got it - except for Judas
Thanks guys. I'm glad you liked it.
No idea until the hint, Then easy, I had already counted the initials.
Nice! Well written with a great hint. If you had said "look to the Bible" I might have gotten it. I was figuring out world leaders and coming up empty.
I had no idea what so ever
the title made me think it may have something to do with the tv show friends which I wasn't understanding at all

Nice one Jazz, even though I didn't even come close to getting it. Thanks for posting.
I found it very easy because most people go by 2 initials, so this represented people we only knew by one name. Then the JI gave it away for me. Very good teaser, going in my faves.
Got everything except for Thomas. Forgot about him. Cool teaser!
I HADN'T A CLUE
Easy. I know the original 12 apostles by heart.
I guessed it had to do with Jesus but as a Jewish girl I no possibility of knowing the answer.
Good quiz. I was on the right track, But I know them as Simon(Peter),James, John(James' brother),Andrew, Philip, Bartholomew, Matthew, Thomas, James, Thaddaeus, Simon and Judas Iscariot. Found in Mark 3:16-19. Had to look-up the reference in Luke 6:14-16.
Enjoyed this one - actually got it!
