[quote=Anonymous]I don't see the problem. Among Ashkenazi Jews its common to honor a relative by using even just the first letter of the name. So Jennifer is named after Judith, etc. To have the same name with a slightly different spelling seems a no brainer to me. Would she be equally upset if you'd spelled it the same way and then used a diminutive or nickname? The child is named after the relative, she is not the relative's mini-me.[/quote]
