Re: Christian?
in reply to a message by Anne
I view it as a religious term first, and would think anyone who did choose it would a Christian. However, I don't think he would be discriminated against because of it. I just don't see the appeal to use it as a name, unless your from that faith then I could see it making sense since it's releated to Christ (follower of Christ). Kind of how Muslims sometimes use the name Muslim as a name (I've seen it used before as such).
Now if it was a name from the Bible, I still would think the parents were Christian, as usually Christians (or people who are religious) choose names like that. That's JMO though, not thay you can't use any, lol. :)
If it was a name from old mythology I probably wouldn't blink an eye, as I like a few names, I do think it's weird when I like few names from other religions, etc.
