[quote=Anonymous][quote]why don't other cultures/countries go back to their roots to name their kids (Swedish, Norwegian, Austrian, French, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Egyptian, etc...)? It seems it is only Irish names that are trendy enough to go back to to name your babies. Maybe it's just my perception?[/quote] That's what I'm asking!! -- you have a woman who is 1/4 Irish, 1/4 German, 1/4 Danish and 1/4 Swedish. Similar for her DH. Her last name was Olssen but changed to his: Lynch. All the grandparents moved to the US in ~ 1880. Between them, they've got 8 countries represented. Odds are 50:1 that they'll honor their suddenly interesting heritage by picking some Gaelic Irish name that not even their U.S. born grandparents are familiar with.[/quote]
