(For People With Kids) About your kid/s name/s....

My first born had the same first name as me, and my dad and my brother. To differentiate, we call him by his middle name. As he was growing up we found the complications of being called by his second name, when legally on all official documents, his name is his first! So, when my second child was born, we gave him a first name which was supposed to be his middle name. Now, there is no confusion. No, confusion for us; but have I confused you yet?

I named my baby after my name and his father's.

my older daughter was named after my friends sister (not because of any family thing, just because i loved the name) and my second daughter was named after hubby's aunt who drowned when she was young.
