Another mystery butterfly id'd

This butterfly is from Tennessee - I spotted it back in late July while I was on vacation. Again, I'm not sure exactly what kind it is... I want to say it's a fritillary, but I don't know what kind and now I will - thanks, John. I doubled checked in Kaufman, and it's a match (not sure how I missed it the first time). A Great Spangled Fritillary.

It looks like a Great Spangled Fritillary, which I think is a great name for such a lovely butterfly.

I agree - it's a great name. Thanks.
