[quote=Anonymous]I know it’s tough, but I would go with the tradition. My kids love tradition and family heritage stuff. Your son may actually grow up to love his name and having that tie to his grandfather. My parents are from a different country and my kids love having middle names that are different and reflect something of that heritage. Also, I have a lot of Greek friends, and they follow this to a T. Even half Greek friends, and again it’s a nice strong tie to their family. My friend’s legal name is Steve but to everyone in his family and the Greek community he is Stavros. It was no big deal. I call him both depending on the situation. I would name him Henry (just an ex.), and the family can call him Hani. But like others said, it’s your kid and at the end of the day your right to name him what you like. [/quote]
