HelpRe: How would you...
in reply to a message by LillieMae87
Naming a child after a parent , especially a son after a father, isn’t done at all in my culture. So that would be my main objection. A compromise would be using a middle name as a first name or a variant, or maybe even a different gender form (eg Michelle for Michael) if it was desperately important for them.
It’s not really massively different than convincing your partner not to use any other name you strongly dislike. “Sorry but I hate that” should be enough.
“And I wish there was a treaty we could sign
I do not care who takes this bloody hill
I'm angry and I'm tired all the time
I wish there was a treaty,
I wish there was a treaty
Between your love and mine”
Leonard Cohen
