What do you think about a daughter being named after her mother?

Actually the practice was quite common in colonial times.  You usually found a child named for the father and one named for the mother.  It seems to have gone out of practice near 1900.  There is nothing wrong with it.

I would look after my only child. He would always know I am around by the flowers I would bring him. Should he leave the door open, I will close it,  when he falls asleep, I will pull the cover over him. Should he call my name, I will be there, seen, or unseen. Why? Because that's what mothers do, we take care of our children, and love them.

I have never heard of this idea that the cow is their mother before. It is a very strange statement, can you give a reference to this or is it just something you made up?

She is never named, (to my knowledge) but it would have to be Moses' Mother.  The Daughter of Levi.  Because her only priority in life was to save her son.  She was a pretty cool and unselfish Mother!

I have a dear friend, his daughter's name is Lacey. It was the first  time I'd ever heard that name. I think it's beautiful.

Let her have your last name my daughter has MY last name. \nI was "nice" and gave her the middle name michelle her fathers name was micheal. \nlegally it doesnt make a difference

It will depend on the courts.  They can't take her without going through the legalities.  I'm curious though... does she even know them?  I mean if her mother had nothing to do with her parents then does the little girl even know her grandparents.  I would think that would be very traumatic for her to leave familiar surroundings on top of losing her parents.  It would be interesting to see the court systems ruling.  I'll certainly pray for the little girls best interests to be remembered!

I'm sorry about your loss. I don't know of any feminine names for German. I do like Gernaliz. That's very pretty. You could call her Nali or Liz. Is your name Mercedes? I named my daughter Mercedes but we call her Chella (Chey-a). Anyway, good luck and God Bless.

It is a cute name but far too common now a day \nI always like Charlie for a girl but thats me. I like the idea of having a name that isnt so common. Mine is Melinda. Its not so common. though my sister is Jennifer and many of her friends have to refer  to her by her first and second name because she is one of many in their circle. Think of something orginal even go back in your family history to find some good ones!!

Not a good idea. I had a friend who is now deceased, his first name was Dicky. He was constantly ask what his real name was, so he finally decided to change it to Richard. His parents never found out, because he was still called Dicky by his friends, but when someone would asked about his real name he could answer Richard.\nLife is difficult enough, so give your child the chance of a happy and healthy life, and give her a normal first name.

Personally I think combining names is a wonderful idea.  Keri is beautiful for a girl.  There is an actress named Keri Russell, I think. \n If you need other ideas here's one.  I am a single parent (he chose not to be involved) so I named my son after my mother.  Her middle name was Denise so his name is Dennis.  \nI didn't name him after my Dad because he is John, Jr, which means there was a Sr. and my other grandfather was John Willie.  So that was out of the question.

The little girl would be called your great, great neice, but titles are not important.  Just be happy she's loved and part of your family!
