HelpWhat if you're like my boyfriend
in reply to a message by RoxStar
And 3 quarters German with an Irish last name? I wouldn't dream of using an Irish name for our children. I'm three quarters Swedish, he's three quarters German and the Irish between us is negligible. However I'd be happy to use a name like Katarina, Anders or Tomas. I know a young man with an Indian movie and an Irish father - they gave their son an Indian first name.
America is such a melting pot that I don't flinch at all when I see a "mismatched" first and last name.

Well, he could have both, I suppose!
My kids are the unlikely mixture of Scottish and Egyptian. Not that we were thinking much about it, however, the three have very mainstream North American first names. More of a concern, living where we do, was to have names that worked well in French or English.So no Ruth or Meridith; the "th" sound is difficult for French speakers.
