My wife's family is catholic/italian and they recycle names within the extended family. My wife is named Faith, as was her mother, grandmother and great grandmother. She has a brother and sister.....wanna guess there names......Mary and Joseph. My sister-in-law is named after several family members making it Mary Johanna...say it fast. Her parents had no idea.
I went to high school with boy and girl twins...Michael and Michaela (sp?) using the shortened versions of there names (Mike, Micha). There last name was Hunt. Say Mike Hunt fast......I laugh about that at 38, we really got a kick out of that at 17!!
