HelpRe: Colonial names
in reply to a message by Barbra
I think you were complimented more than criticized, since he said all but one of the names you posted could really be colonial names.
Anyway, it happens that the person you're personally attacking actually is a professor and author, posting under his real name. He's known to be an expert about many name usages. Not that anyone needs to show anyone credentials around here, to criticize or comment.

Just because someone is a professor in a given role in life does not grant him professorship in any other given social role other than those which award him professorship. Simply being a professor anywhere does not grant him professorship anywhere else. He is not my professor--and he is certainly not that of Princes Shireen. As an author, I hope he earns whatever success he seeks, but I hope that it is not to attack Prncess Shireen's post as he has here.
Do you remember last year my personal note about Pamela - and the critique I received by folks who appointed themselves professors?
I do not need to boast my credentials; if I were to do so, that would render me with similar conceit.
I am however defending Princes Shireen.
