<p>[QUOTE="gregsglass, post: 567049, member: 78"]Hi,</p><p> Family first names are a CHORE!!!! My grandfather was always Frederick John and his brother was John John So my uncle when he was born was named Frederick after his father. When my grandfather applied for Social Security he found out his name was John Frederick. We then found out it was common to name all the boys John. It got worse since the next generation all named their boys George. My father was George my uncle was George, my two aunts both married Georges. Of my cousins three were named George. It became a mess with everyone named George. Thank Goodness of all the Georges none of us named any of their sons George. My SIL named her first son Peter James which was her husbands name but she did not want a Junior. To this day her husbands mail gets confused with her sons mail and they are always opening each others mail and getting mad when it isn't his.<img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/eek.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":eek:" unselectable="on" /><img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/eek.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":eek:" unselectable="on" /><img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/eek.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":eek:" unselectable="on" /><img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/eek.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":eek:" unselectable="on" /><img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/eek.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":eek:" unselectable="on" /><img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/eek.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":eek:" unselectable="on" /></p><p>greg[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
