Re: Davis
in reply to a message by -=A=-
I have a cousin who has two sons, 2½ and 1. My cousin's wife is very snobbish, very stuck-up, and she has a thing for surnames as fn's. Their boys' names are Parks Reynolds (IIRC; Parks for sure) and Davis Moody, all family surnames (three out of four are from her family). Four names, and not one true formal given name among them.I am forever turned off from Davis just for this reason; not that I thought much of it before. A little boy named Davis (and I couldn't tolerate it on a girl) is inevitably going to be called Dave, so it may as well be for David, the genuine given name.Of course I recognize I have a strong bias toward David anyway.
