As it is about religion you can make a go like "Every person in the world belongs to a tribe or to a religion. Every body is identified by his or her religion." and so on..... Good Luck for your project.

Hi there! In Brazil is kind of similar then. The middle name comes from the mother's side and the last name comes from the father's. At the end, the father's name prevails anyways... since my baby would have my last name as his middle name and my husband's last name as his last name. Confusing, but if sort of looks like this:\nSay we have a couple: \nFernando Almeida da Silva and Luiza Ferreira Braz.\nTheir baby will call: Gabriel Braz da Silva

There are billions of names in the world... so who knows where it came from. Just go with it... and smile... and nobody will notice until you have to have to say it or have them spell it.\nBetter than Miller, Smith Anderson, etc. You won't be lost in the phone book somewhere with a million other names the same. lol

First, I would like to make one thing clear that whether you would do it right with your Son's/Daughter's marriage.\n\nThe answer is : because in India, we live in a society that bothers more about what their friends and neighbour does rather than what they do.\n\nWhy this matters is more important? is what you imagine.\n\nYes it matters, Parents always want to get a good name to the family and not that Guinness book records or those that make to the pages of Newspaper headlines. Also the society is ready to put a gossip about such a marriage involving a bad brought up by your parents.\n\nIt may be education or marriage or Organ donation... They want us to be their children and not ourselves. They simply ignore what we want to show this world.\n\nI suppose atleast you would not do this to your children.

Honestly it all has to do with the birth certificate.  The mother has all control when it comes to naming the child.  The birth certificate is the document that is going to be the legal name for the child and the father of the child doesn't have any rights when it comes to the birth certificate.  In fact the mother has to give permission to the father to even sign the certificate so for naming rights you have all the power you need.

Minnal Girl! what a nice Tamil name.  You may be modern.  To change is a welcomable move, but by the same time keep in mind that cultural string gives you idendity.  Do not throw away that.  Try to accommodate with you would be's culture. Best of luck.

Last name is father's family name. John David Smith: Smith is Father's name. Father was, say Charles Smith. In business relationships, he would be called Mr. Smith. His wife would call him Charles.\n\nFirst name is given name, what your Mother or sister may call you (NOT a nickname, tho). John David Smith: First name John.\n\nMiddle name is second given name, if any. John David Smith: David is middle name. Your Mom might use it when she is REALLY angry at you: JOHN DAVID, you get over here to me, RIGHT NOW! lol\n\nOrdinarily not used.\n\nI was raised Roman Catholic, and have FOUR names! First name. Middle name. Confirmation Name. Last name. :-))\n\nUsually middle names are not used, unless necessary to differentiate between two people with same name: John D. (for David) Smith vs John H. (for Henry) Smith, if both in the same class in school, or on the same list.\n\nHope this helps.\n\nWhere are you from? Do people use two names in your culture? I know in some, it is not done.

There last names were given to them by the whites. Most are given ndn names from a elder in the family. Such as named after a family member or some significant thing  that was seen  or done at the time.

You could use names for mom and dad in other languages.  \n\nIn French mother and father is mere and pere. \nIn Italian and in Spanish mother and father is madre and padre.\nIn Dutch its moeder and vader. \nIn German mother and father is Mutter und Vater.\n\nColloquial terms for mom and dad include mama, mumsy, papa, pops.  You could use first names for the characters, i.e. Charles and Esther.  Good luck!

Good question. The only "default" names I've known of would be John Doe or Jane Doe. I think the nurses or social workers end up coming up with the names, other than John or Jane Doe, but they're likely changed upon adoption.
