Re: how do you feel about using place names and surnames to honour?
in reply to a message by vekalvin
Place names bother me ever since I was a child and saw that stupid commercial about the kids being named after the place they were conceived. The kid in the commercial was named after the car. *eye roll*
I don't mind surnames, but my thought is more that if you can't imagine losing your last name when you are married, keep it. Don't use it as a middle or first name for your child. I can't imagine being close enough to any other surname than my own or my parents to want to use it for my child. Added, most surnames are not very nice sounding as given names.
