Some nationalities/religions/etc., had fairly stringent naming conventions (i.e., the first son is named after so-and-so, the first daughter is named after [fill in the blank], etc.). The ones that drive me nuts are when an older child has died and the parents name a new baby the same as the deceased child.

Would have been nice if at least the female names had been varied, making it a little easier to distinguish between folks!

You'd think with all the choices out there, they could have been a little more adventurous. :)Linda Stufflebeanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10652044674485948749noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7627646916311356078.post-55462301163225597342016-07-21T15:30:37.510-04:002016-07-21T15:30:37.510-04:00complicated but maybe solution is possiblecomplicated but maybe solution is possibleGosiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14604712540141917583noreply@blogger.com
