Does that make sense?
Not really...;)

My middle name is my dad's first name, his middle name was my grandad's first name, etc etc (for something obscene like 15 generations). Which technically makes me Nicholas Andrew Nariman Surabji [...], but we got into the habit of stopping at two ;)

My family has name traditions too, only on the female line rather than the male... Every first born daughter has 'Goverina' - or some variation of it, as either their first or second name.

This could get quite confusing if there's a load of first born girlies in the room, so the variations are used, I (used to) have a whole plethora of aunts called things like:

Ina
Ietje
Mina
Sija
Wija
Vera
Verina
Verine
Veertje
Govje
Govie
Rina
Rine...

Can't remember any others atm... Oh, thats my Dutch side of the Family btw :D
Mmmm. Yes. Possibly.

My parents had my sister, and then another daughter, she was very ill and only lived seven months, her middle name was Louise, which is my first name. My sister's middle name is Jane, which is my middle name. Hence my sister named me after the sister i never met and she wanted me and her to share middle names.

Therefore, i am Louise Jane.

That any better? :wink:

Traditional names are good, but you couldn't have thomas as you already have a john and calling their names would be embarrasing!

Winehaus imports wines from South Germany. The Baden-Wurttemberg region makes dry reds and whites, and with its warmer climate, stylistically has much in common with Burgundy.

Theres always my name. Phillip (with 2 Ls), rather an appropriate name for round these parts, meaning "lover of horses"

Judas?

Does anyone know of anyone called Judas?
Even Cain or Ghengis seem more popular.
