I have a cousin named Glenn -so that one was already taken.

I fought long and hard with my husband when we had our first son. I really wanted to name him Tim (Timothy). He had his heart set on another name . He won. Our son's name is Tom. So close!!

When we had our second son, hubby thought I should use the name Tim, but I didn't want to have a Timmy and and Tommy. Both boys make these horrified faces when I tell them this story, so I think they're relieved I didn't get too cutesy.

I don't know in other Countries, hell, I don't know about other man either :shock: but for me, as a male- Dad, when my first boy was born was VERY important to me he carried MY name (JP). Lucky me, my Wife had no problem on that (Also, Jaime her Dad's name -may father in law, was on her older brother as well her first nephew. As well my Dad's name Alfonso (Bernal) was taken on my older brother and his first son, first grandson so on that matter either was a problem at all).

Ler t me take air... Aahhhh! By the way my Mom's Dad was also an Alfonso (Robles), so she married an Alfonso (not very common).

Well as I was saying, for me was very important, is nice to know after you leave this World and RIP, another bud with your exact name will be around your Hometown and so, and maybe, some others after him you even may not ever know...

Is sad to me the custom in México for naming kids, because after 2,3 generations the last name of the Grandpa´s on the mother's side gets banished, lost erased or whatever...

I mean for example I am Smith. My daughter has a child, female. This child will take the last name of his dad, let's say Cox. So the baby girl is Cox Smith. She grows up and in years she marries a Harris guy, has a baby so this kid's last name will be Harris Cox and so on an on. That's it,
Smith my beautiful... just kiddin' last name is banished from this Earth See my point?

I know same may happens in other cultures and maybe this could be a silly thing for some, not for me. This thought of mine is not a macho, ego either a latino thing, my meaning is, is a shame IMHO not my blood, but our beloved ancestors name gets lost due to... customs, burocracy whathever Don't you think? :idea:

Ah and Molly: What's hubby's name? 8)

Ah and Molly: What's hubby's name? 8)

It's not Tom -it's Steve! But his maternal grandfather's name was Thomas Johnson and his paternal grandfather's name was John-thus, our son is Thomas John.

His family tends to carry names on thru the generations. My family never did that. I understood why he wanted to use the name he did-he adored and respected his grandfathers. Trust me, by the time Tom was born, I was totally OK with it. I could tell it was very important to my husand.

I have taught students from the Irish Traveller Community (a nomadic gypsy type of indigenous /ethnic group over here.) The girls I taught were amazed that we 'settled' people could choose our own childrens names. They are known for marrying as young as 16 or 17 and having very large families (up to 15 kids :shock: in some). But They follow a strict traditional naming pattern

The Eldest son gets his dads dads name.
The Next son gets his mom's dads name

The Eldest daughter gets her mom's mom's name
The next daughter gets her dads moms name.

The remaining sons are named alternatively after the dads and moms brothers

Similarly the remaining daughters are named after the moms and dads sisters!

I can see why they have so many before they can choose their own names!

tlr - in the US, the maternal name doesn't even last one generation, much less two or three. Here, the tradition is that the child takes the last name of the father, and that's it.

Some people do a hypenated last name which includes both the maternal and paternal last names, but that's unusual.

In the south, an old tradition is that the eldest daughter of the eldest daughter gets the maternal last name as her middle name. My aunt did that, as did my grandmother, etc, but I don't know how many people do that nowadays, and I don't think it ever extended to the north.

Part of the reason why, in the past, people have wanted sons so badly was to "carry on the name." For years, my paternal grandmother kept harassing my mother to have more kids until she had a son so that my dad's name wouldn't die out (he has no brothers). Mom said "Sorry, three daughters is enough!"

Glennsallnighter
01-25-2008, 09:07 PM
She was right! Anyway there would have been no guarantee that a son would have been the marrying / have kids type!

Interesting to read about naming traditions. My husband, his father and grandfather had the same middle name and wanted us to continue the family tradition when Phil was born (twenty years ago plus two days! :shock: ). I wanted to keep my family name as my sister has no children, so his middle name is Francis. Their first names were just names we liked, that suited boys and would be ok when thay grew up.

With middle names my mother was Norma Jean and I'm Julie Jean but I had no intention of carrying that on. I never wanted to use any family names except I would have liked Paul, my uncle's name and my brother-in-law's name. If Rosalind had been a boy she would have been Robert Francis, and Francis is my Uncle Paul's middle name. (My father was Terence John).

I never considered Eagles related names as you can see, though I like their names. If anything Robert would have been for Robert Plant and Francis for Frank Zappa. For me it was all about literature. Rosalind would have been Miranda except that my husband (Michael) is against using the same initial for another family member and we live not far from a huge shopping mall in the Sydney suburb of Miranda. So that was out. So it was still going to be from Shakespeare, so it's Rosalind (As You Like It). Her middle name Sonia is from Tolstoy's War & Peace and probably should have been spelt Sonya but I preferred the French spelling.

NB My mother wanted me to be Julia rather than Juliet, but my father wouldn't have that so that makes the line in Dire Straits' Romeo & Juliet even more special for me ('Julie, I'd do the stars with you any time').

It's weird but it took me a long time to find out what Glenn's middle name was. When I found out the initial I thought 'Lewis' and I was right.

glenneaglesfan
01-27-2008, 12:20 PM
That's amazing that you guessed Glenn's middle name, Julie. Female intuition! Rosalind is such a pretty name, and it's nice to hear about the Shakespearean allusion. My mother named me Katharine after Princess Katharine in Henry V. She had just seen Olivier's performance before I was born.

This is a really interesting discussion, but I moved it to "Cheap Talk and Wine" as it seems more about traditions and less about Glenn. Carry on!

I know most of the comments have been about naming traditions but following the direction of Maleah's comment, we have named some of our pets with Eagles-related names. We have a kitty named Henley Joe and a puppy named Poco, nods to Don, Joe and Timothy. Haven't come up with one for Glenn yet though, sorry to all Glenn fans here.

I am fascinated with names. What I don't get at the moment is the tendency to use what I consider surnames as Christian names. Taylor, as in Taylor Frey, is a prime example, but at least he spelt it properly, not 'Tayla' or 'Taylah' (can 'Tailor' be far behind)? I see that Nicole Ritchie, I think, called her new daughter 'Harlow'. If you were English you'd say 'and why didn't you add 'Newtown' to it while you were at it? Madison (or Maddison)... I don't get it.

Don is Donald Hugh, which I really like. His mother was 'Hughlene'. That's very reminiscent of Australian names in the 50s and 60s when we had Charlene, Darlene, Raelene and boys were all called Shane, Darren, Wayne and Keith. :blush:

GEF, that is great that you got Katharine after Henry V (great film).

Glennsallnighter
01-27-2008, 07:24 PM
I think sometimes people use a surname in a first name if they are afraid it might die out in their family line. Particularly like over here where most families just tend to use the father's name as a surname. My mother had suggested using 'Kingston' as my brothers name as it had been my dad's mothers own name but because none of her brothers married was going to be lost. However in the end she called him 'John'!
In the early 70's people were less accomodating of unusual names over here :roll:

Freypower
01-27-2008, 07:38 PM
That certainly used to be the case but now it just seems to be a trend. When I start seeing 'Smith' or 'Jones' used as a first name... :twisted:

01-27-2008, 09:48 PM
My mother chose our names, and she just picked out names she'd heard and liked. My best friend named her SON Taylor (he's 12 now), and her eldest daughter is Madison - many people took part in that "last name first" trend. My younger sister's husband wanted to name their daughter after his grandmother. My older sister's eldest son was given a Biblical name, and the next one a Texan name (Austin).

I've always liked the name "Rachel" for a girl. For guys, I seem to tend towards "J" names - John, Jason, Jake, etc. Don't ask me why!

One thing I wouldn't do to my kid is give them a really weird spelling for their name. I know one lady who spells her kid's name "Maridythe" (pronounced Meredith). Why?!!

I don't know anyone else who's named their children after Eagles, but I do know several people who have named their daughters "Stephanie," "Stevie," "Rhiannon," or "Sara" thanks to Stevie Nicks. (One also named her daughter "Lily" after a more obscure Stevie song).

Oh gosh RNA - good luck with your new litter of kittens. As far as naming one after Glenn - you need to be very careful. Many of the names I associate with Glenn may keep you up all hours of the night - like the Allnighter, Sugar, and Teen King. :D :D :D

You can try Lewis or Cody (his South of Sunset character). Other character names: Spence, Dennis, Bobby/Travis, and Jimmy/Cole.

He also reportedly likes to call himself Elvis. ;) Nicknames bestowed upon him include Roach and Sporticus.

Maybe one of those will do! I like Spence, Cody or Cole myself - the latter if the kitty is black (nobody has to know where it came from or how you spell it, lol).

Brooke
01-30-2008, 05:36 PM
Good luck naming the kitties, rckn!

We actually named our daughter Lindsey (the spelling from Mr. Buckingham) Rhiannon (from one of my favorite Stevie songs). I remember reading all of our album covers checking the names and came up with those from the Fleetwood Mac album!

Our son is Tyler (just a name I liked from a soap) and Brent (after his dad).

I have a nephew that was due to have a baby (his wife actually!) around Christmas. I thought it would be pretty to name it a seasonal name like Holly or Merri (after great grandmother Mary). Then we tried that with their last name (Berry) and gave up on that idea! They didn't think Holly Berry or Merri Berry was too cute! :lol:

Molly
01-30-2008, 06:44 PM

LOL! Probably a wise move!

We have a local race car driver here whose name is (I'm not making this up) Dick Head. When the track announcer said that over the speakers the first time, I thought my two boys were going to die laughing.

Our office handles the birth certificate reporting for the State so we get to see what all the new babies here in Washington County are named. I've even seen one little guy named "Seven" like the Seinfeld episode.

We have an awful lot of "Brett", "Brady", and "Peyton"'s right now (after the football quarterbacks, I'm sure).

Names do go in trends. If there is a popular TV character or sports person-I know I'll see the name pop up over and over again.

The parents that drive me crazy are the ones that take "normal" names and spell them oddly, like Steffanee or Addamm.

The Boss. Control Freak. El Supremo. God (if if you had two cats you could call them God 1 and God 2 and then they'd be The Gods).

And no doubt he has been called other things which are not necessarily very complimentary. :twisted:

On the subject of weird names, there was one of the usual spate of lightweight funny books out this Christmas which listed bizarre names researched from parish registers in Britain. Among the printable ones are Hazel Nutt and Luke Warm. It had my boys crying with laughter. One poor child had a name for every letter of the alphabet.

Yes, but I think when considering names for a child you also have to take into account that the kid will have to live with that name forever. Some kids get an unmerciful teasing over their names, and kids lives can be hard enough without wishing it on them! JMO

In Scandinavia it's quite common to have names like Erik Erikson. My husband could theoretically have been Gustaf Gustafson if his great grandfather hadn't left Sweden.

The Manchester United footballers Gary and Phil Neville had a song sung about them to the tune of David Bowie's Rebel Rebel. One of the lines is 'Neville Neville is the name of your dad'. It's true. :?

Annabel is a lovely name, only it's very usual here in Europe, so I don't want that my kid gets a very 'normal' name, you know.

My best friend said Sharon, because he loves that name, and it was his sisters name too..
So I decide that my girl is getting the full name Sharon Sophie and name Sophie.

Sophie is indeed a lovely name, as are all those mentioned! In the unlikely event of my having another boy I would love to call him Glenn :heart: Timothy, Joseph Don (In that order) although my daughter would probably prefer the first 2 names reversed. And hubby would FREAK!!!!!!!!! :cuss: :argue:
For a girl he booked his mother's name years ago when she died which I suppose is fair enough! (Margaret)

Its all theory anyway as I can't convince him another would be a good idea :nod: :nod: :nod:

Sophie is indeed a lovely name, as are all those mentioned! In the unlikely event of my having another boy I would love to call him Glenn :heart: Timothy, Joseph Don (In that order) although my daughter would probably prefer the first 2 names reversed. And hubby would FREAK!!!!!!!!! :cuss: :argue:
For a girl he booked his mother's name years ago when she died which I suppose is fair enough! (Margaret)

Glenn Timothy Joseph Don is a great order! I would love it! :D

Yes, I would do that too!

I keep telling all my friends that when I get a dog I'm going to name him henley :D

Or maybe if I ever have a boy I'll use that as a middle name :D

My dogs name is Henley! :D
Actually it's Yuno but I call him Henley!

Yes......but my daughter would NEVER let me get away without Tim's name being at least 2nd :roll: . I think she'd be happy enough with Glenn :heart: as the first name.

This made me laugh---as you might remember, 2 of my cats are Ringo and Elton! I really pushed for Timothy for Rufus' name but to no avail!!!
