Order of names
Jul. 17th, 2007 10:16 amEdit: I re-read my original post and realised it made very little sense. What I was trying to ask is: how important is it for a child's given name (the one you plan on calling them every day) to be their FIRST name?
For example, if you wanted to call your daughter Anne, but also wanted to give her the name Margaret, which is a family name (i.e. all the woman in your family on your mother's side have it), would you call her Anne Margaret or Margaret Anne? If you chose the latter, would you still feel comfortable calling her Anne instead of Margaret?
Hope that makes more sense!!
