There is a Drive named IMO between Cherry and Hillcrest. Does anyone know what IMO stands for?

newsnot, I do believe that IMO DR, is short for IMOGENE..This street was named after a doctors daughter ( who was called IMO ), that had died in the early years of that part of Dayton.. She had been badly injured on that street from a street accident of some kind.. She died at Good Samaritan Hospital from her injuries.. Now this is just rumor, But it was told to me by a very elderly doctor who lived on IMO DR when we owned Yellow Cab years ago..Who knows, it may have been his daughter,, that's all I have on that..This would be great to investigate further to see if that old doctors story was correct..As of now, I have no reason to doubt him..
