Help[Opinions] Re: Naming After Grandparents
in reply to a message by Canielle
I'm going to do this exercise with both of my own grandparents in mind.
Mine would be Patricia & Sherry. I was into the idea of honoring my Nana Patricia for a while when I was younger but it just feels so "tired" of a name. Tricia is kind of cute it could still be a serviceable nickname. Sherry is imo unusable because of the alcohol reference. If I were to honor this grandma I would probably go with Sherilyn like Sherilyn Fenn the actress. So also possibly Patricia "Tricia" & Sherilyn or even Patrice & Sherilyn. If 1 twin was named for my mother like the Bush twins one would be named Susannah though I would consider electing for a different spelling, Suzana and called her Zana.
I was already planning on naming a son after my maternal grandfather, Leo. My other grandfather I assure you does not deserve to be honored, but if he were it would be Leo & Gordon. But Gordon is ugly, old and unappealing so if I had wanted to use it I would have altered it to Gordo or similar. Leo and Gordo.
