Re: Question about names and cultures
But how does that apply to people who live in a country that doesn't have a specific foreign culture (thank you for that phrase Ilex) like the US? Do you think that someone like me who is half Slovak and half Dutch/German/French should only use names from those cultures, as opposted to names like Elizabeth or Ann (aka very English names)? I'm not saying that I disagree with you-it's an interesting point and the world of names encountered would certainly be more interesting if that was the case. I'm just wondering how far you're applying that.
