[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When my brother and his wife were separated, she got a dog and named it the same name as my son. My son has a traditional Irish name, not a name given to dogs that I’m aware of, and [b]my SIL is not from Europe or the United States[/b], so it is not a name she would have likely ever come across without having met my son, who was already born and named for many years before she and my brother met. That I thought was odd behavior. [/quote]

So if she was from Europe or the US she could give her dog the Irish name?  Now we actually have to be from the country before we name our animals?  Well, I named my cat Merida and I am not Scottish!  Oh dear! People might think it is "odd"[/quote]

No? It would still be an odd name for a dog. I was pointing out that there is little chance my SIL would have known this name without having met my son. She is not fluent in English and it is not at all a name in her country of origin. The fact she did it while separated from my brother was odd.[/quote]

So what.  Grow up[/quote]
