Help[Opinions] Re: God is my Oath God is my Oath & Grace Grace
in reply to a message by Amoret
There's the TV lawyer/blowhard Nancy Grace, Grace being her last name. (I cannot stand that woman.)
Hannah Grace is pretty common, actually. To the point of feeling like a cliche.
It doesn't strike me as odd that the fn and mn would have the same meaning. So long as the names don't sound alike it doesn't bother me. Isabella Elizabeth is a terrible slobbery mouthful.
My guess is that the people who do this either do it on purpose precisely because the meanings are the same, or they just don't know or don't care.
Before you criticize a man, walk a mile in his shoes. That way, when you criticize him, you're a mile away and you have his shoes!
