What are peoples opinions on naming your child in honour of someone who died young?
My mum wanted to call me Ansley after my great aunt but Ansley died when she was 16 and my mum thoght it was a bad omen. My brother, however, wants to call his daughter Lucy Rose after his friend who passed away a couple of years ago. She was 17.

Sorry if this is a bit depressing but I was just wondering what people thought.

Lovely gesture, nice reminder or bad omen?

That's more like a family name though...not honouring one person in particular because they died.
& i love the name Anna
