HelpRe: What do honoring names mean to you? :)
in reply to a message by Xena
Hi !!!
I'd love to use honouring names despite in my family nobody follows this tradition.
Actually I know my ancestry just until my great-grandparents. I would start honouring them. If in the future I'll found any older branch, I suppose I will include these new names.
I prefer to use honouring names as middle names though.

Neat! Yeah, I think middle names work best for honoring names :)
My dad is really into genealogy and has collected all these documents tracing back generations (marriage certificates, letters, etc.)
I'm just wondering, what does that connection mean to you when you honor great-grandparents / great-great-grandparents that you never knew? Because I know others name children on the opposite end of the spectrum––after family members that they're closest to.
