How do you go about naming your child after someone with an old fashioned name?

No matter what the name..nick names can always attach themselves...if u feel obligated to name them after someone with an oldfashion name u can always update/ refresh it ..or choose it as the middle name :D

How do you go about naming your child after someone with an old fashioned name?
I thought it was fun to look up names that were way back in my family tree. There were some unusual names that were also pretty. That will also tie in your heritage. Many people look to the Bible for names, and you could read through some old books for ideas.
Reply:If you like the name, just go for it! If it's someone you know though, you should ask them first.
Reply:Well you can modern it up sort of - if the name is Lillian you could spell it Lily Anne. Or you could look at the old fashioned name and see if there is a nice nickname you could use for an everyday name, for instance Anastasia could be Staci, or Ana. If it is really not a name you love - use it as a middle name.
Reply:If you like the name...simply just do it. You will always find someone who likes the name....and someone who hates the name. Truly it's your child so only you can veto a name.





And don't let anyone tell you what to name your child. Every one in my family has hated all my kids names until they were actually born. I got to the point where I haven't told anyone this time what we plan on naming our daughter. (Reyna Grace) I love the name, it means Peaceful Queen....





At any rate...name your baby what you want...and screw every one else. Congrats!!!
Reply:I think its an awesome idea. Not a lot of people are using them now a days. I named my daughter Audrey Faye (Faye after g-ma). My son is Alden Joseph ( Alden after a deceased friend-Joseph after g-pa ). Both names are more like people in their 80's.
Reply:Choose the name from an internet site.





Good luck.

Reply:What name


Catherine, can be updated with Kaya, Caitlin, or nicknames like Cate, Katie, Kay, Kit, Kitty





Elizabeth, can be updated like, Eliza, Betty, Besty, Ella, Libby





Victoria, Tori





What the name
Reply:Just name them. Like Margaret (after my grandmother) and call her Maggie for short. Or use it as a middle name if I really don't like it (like Elsa).

Reply:We named our daughter Margarette after an Irish grandmother of mine. It is old and hard to spell, but it meant so much to me to honor her in such a profound way. I knew my daughter would have a horrible time trying to say let alone spell it in school, so we gave her the nickname "Marnie". It is sweet, and also Irish. Just make it their own while still honoring the older person.
Reply:Well, I figured this: My dad's name is Alex and my mom's middle name is Elaine. I want to call one of my kids Alexis Elaine _____ *last name*. If it is an old fashioned name, you could always make it a middle name. You wouldn't want your kids to be made fun of for their whole life. Consider what it will sound like on them when they:


--start kindergarden


--start middle school


--start high school


--have kids of their own


--when they are 60


Can someone give me a good name for my Fashion label,I think naming it after myself is a bit plain any ideas ?

Can someone give me a good name for my Fashion label,I think naming it after myself is a bit plain any ideas ?
Name it after the inspiration for your clothes. For example, say I was inspired by a pretty spring day in the countryside. I'd call my line "Jolie Printemps" (pretty spring in French).





Or maybe I was inspired by something very English-feminine - I'd call it "Tea Time".





You can always add your name on the end, too: "Tea Time by ________ ".





Have fun with naming your label.

What is the correct way to accept a baby naming ceromany invatation?

I'm assuming it's a Jewish Ceremony, right? All you have to do is let them know you are coming by phone, email, or return invitation. If it is a Jewish ceremony and it will be at a synagogue, they may want you to wear a kippah, or skullcap out of respect. Have fun, naming ceremonies are all about the next generation, they are wonderful!


I am in the process of naming a book. Is it possible for a name to be illegal to use because it was once the?

name of a TV series and a song? How do I find out? Can names be trade marked or copyrighted? Thank you for helping.

Youll probly have to get ahold of the publisher or whoever is in charge of copywriting the show or song. Don't wanna get sued...that would be bad.
Reply:I don't think using a title is illegal. If you look at the list of books in print, you will see the same titles repeated.


I found out that after I had published a novel that there was another with the same name.
Reply:Titles can be trademarked, but not copyrighted. Check to find out whether the title is trademarked before you assume you can use it. Go to http://www.uspto.gov/ to find out if your title has been trademarked.





Remember, though: if you use a title that has already been used, you may stir up unwanted resonances. Just as a suggestion, imagine you wanted to call a book "The Dukes of Hazzard." Even if your book has nothing to do with that TV series, your readers will carry that notion as baggage the whole time you're reading.





So as long as a title is not trademarked, it should be available for you to use. But that doesn't mean you should; it would be better to come up with something that isn't carrying so much baggage.
Reply:It is not inherently illegal, but I would advise doing thorough research to see if another book, movie, etc. has the same title. Obviously if you use a title that is already in use and have very similar material, you might be opening yourself up for a potential lawsuit. You can always put a disclaimer in the book (which most publishers do anyway) that says something like "This is a work of fiction. Names, characters, places and incidents are products of the author's imagination or are used fictitiously and should not be construed as real. Any resemblance to actual events, literary works, locales, organizations or persons, living or dead, is entirely coincidental." That way you are covered. When in doubt, ask a publisher.
Reply:Apply for a copyright on the name, and the copyright division will find out for you. If you get the copyright, you are home free.





Many times, after so many years, names and such become free of copyright infringement restrictions.

Reply:I don't think using a previously used title is illegal. For example, I was looking for any books with the same name as a book I'm working on and found a book already using that name. Since the other book was a sort of "guide" to northeastern Vermont, I can probably use the title safely, but I'd still check before submitting to a publisher.





I think titles in movies are guarded more jealously. For instance, when the film, "Blade Runner" was made, they didn't want to use the title of the book on which it was based ("Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep", by Philip K. D**k), so they used the "Blade Runner", only to find out they had to pay royalties or a fee for the use of THAT name, since it was the title of some other sci-fi book about doctors in a post-apolyptic world. So they paid twice.





People above make a good argument for not having possible negative associations with previously used titles. One technique for getting titles is to use famous quotes, or commonly known phrases, but with a twist. Many legal thrillers use names found in legal terminology, such as "Presumed Innocent" or "Disclosure".





Many people use biblical or mythological quotes, or lines from poems or songs, such as "A Time to Kill". There are many sites on the web devoted to famous quotes. Check out those.





I like titles that use the names of people or places, like "Lolita", "Dolores Claiborne", "Mystic River" and so on.





Good luck!
Reply:There are many books, movies, etc. with the same titles. Just look in a big video catalog, eg. the one from movies Unlimited with 40,000 titles. I wrote a story years ago and originally titled it "Framed", but that seemed lame, and I saw other stories with that title. I thought of a new title that I found more clever and original, "Guilty Until Proven Innocent". Just a few days before I sent my book to the copyright office, a TV movie with my title was aired. It was too late for me to change the title without much reworking, e.g. new cover, etc., so I just kept the title, since one cannot copyright it.

What do you think of naming your kids names all starting with the same letter?

I have 2 at the moment Raynah(3 yrs) and Ryland(3 weeks)....and I was talking with my husband about POSSIBLE future babies and "R" names....


Do you think its dumb when people do that? I kinda like it. I realize I'm setting myself up for a lot of confusion as far as calling them goes ..."Ray-----Ryland!!!!" lol





Also...if you have any R names that are unusual I'd like to hear them boys and girls!!

What do you think of naming your kids names all starting with the same letter?
Personally, I think it's tacky.


Since Raynah and Ryland are already similar, you should definitely break the trend if you choose to have more children. Give your next baby a name that is vastly different from the first two, preferably a name with no r's or y's in it. That would establish a separate identity for the children and they would know their names weren't chosen to keep with a theme.


My parents named my two brothers 'm' names that are quite similar, and their middle names were similar as well. It isn't strange, however, because my name is so different from theirs.
Reply:Well I love the names Raynah and Ryland.





My hubby wanted to name all our kids with names that started with J but when we found out that I was pregnant with the twins we chose not to. Personally I think its cool if you name them starting with the same letter as long as they don't match too much like the "Dugger" family.





We had Jocelyn Rayne and Jaidalyn Skye picked out for the twins but than we decided against that. Although now I really love those names.





Well you know I like the name Ryder for a boy, what about Rhianna for a girl, Raelyn for a girl is cute, Riley could be for either. If I come up with more I will send them to you.





My husbands brothers names all start with the letter "T" Tyler, Trenton, and Trystan. His sisters names start with the letter "S" Sabrina, Skyla, and Sierra.
Reply:From personal experience I'm the second oldest of my cousins and the only one whose name doesn't start with the letter A a lot of people ask why I was the odd ball. It kinda gets me when my grandmother introduces us because (not real names) its like... Ana, Kathrine, Austin, Amber, Adraianne, Amy, Amory, Alex and so on... So I would definately keep going with the Rs so that they all feel that they are in a group or something. I just wouldn't get them sounding alike a lot or kinda giving them ryming names you know?
Reply:I hate it. My sister and I (the one I grew up with) both had the same letter first names. Hated it. I have two cousins (who are siblings) with the same letter first names.





I think its stupid. I was forever being called my sisters name and there is a 9 year age gap.





My other siblings all have different letter names (but they are my half siblings that have a different mom)








I will not give my kids the same first letter names





But that is just me








R names:


Remi (Remington) (Boy or girl name)


Rachel (Girl)


Riley (boy)


Rochelle(Girl)


Ryan (boy)


Roman (boy)


Richard (boy)
Reply:I don't think it's weird. It's pretty cute..Just don't get like my grandmother. My uncles are Timmy, Teddy, and Tommy and when she is calling any of them she is always confusing them and call the wrong one! It's gets to the point where she just will yell one of you that starts with the letter "T".
Reply:If it's important to you, why not? Honestly, my sisters and I all have different first initials and still get called by the other's name. I get Sar-Hei-Melissa an awful lot. It's just something that happens naturally when you are frustrated. Here are some "R" name suggestions.

Naming compounds that contain multicharged ions?

I am taking Chemistry 1070. We are studying polyatomic ions. On my study guide I thought the name for the compound, SnO was stannous oxide, but on the answer sheet my professor has tin II oxide. How do I know when to use stannous and when to use tin II, the same goes for how do I know when to use plumbic and when to use lead IV?

Naming compounds that contain multicharged ions?
Ok, well Tin (II) is the same as Stannous, just as Tin (IV) is the same as Stannic, you can use the names back and forth and its the same thing (stannous and stannic are just older names for Tin (II) and Tin (IV)). The same goes for lead, theres Pb (II) and Pb (IV) (Plumbous and Plumbic respectively).
Reply:It's easy, go with whatever the professor says. Stannous oxide here would be the common name, and tin 2 oxide would be the chemical name, I'm assuming the names you've given are correct. Its like water and dihydrogen monoxide.


When did the start naming tropical storms i thought it had to be a hurricane winds of 75 mpr to get a name ?

Tropical storms are given a name once winds reach 39 mph. When they reach sustained winds of 74mph, they're considered Hurricanes.

When did the start naming tropical storms i thought it had to be a hurricane winds of 75 mpr to get a name ?
They've been naming tropical storms since 1950. However, it wasn't "names". It went Able, Baker, Charlie, Dog, Easy, Fox, etc...
Reply:No, tropical cyclones get named when they reach tropical storm status, i.e. maximum sustained winds of at least 39 mph.


Why must Roman Numerals be used when naming certain ionic compounds?

Why must Roman Numerals be used when naming certain ionic compounds?

Why must Roman Numerals be used when naming certain ionic compounds?
Some elements have more then one oxidation state, some elements can form bonds with other elements by either gaining or losing more then one set number of electron. You must use roman numerals to indicate which oxidation state the element is in when that element is in a compound.





One example is Iron (Fe). Fe has the oxidation states, +2 and +3 (losing 2 and 3 elections respectively). And yes, one transferred electron can make a world of a difference.
Reply:Some elements may have more than one possible charge.


eg, Sodium, Na, is always Na+ (positive charge of one)


BUT Iron, Fe, may have multiple charges: Fe2+, Fe3+





Even though it is the same element, each of these cations (positively charged ion) is DIFFERENT, and each has different affects on substances in a reaction. (A reactant of Fe2+, will produce a different product compound than Fe3+)


So you see, it is VERY important to know which cation is being used in the reaction (otherwise you may form something that you really don't want, but either way your experimental results will be completely inaccurate.)





For this reason, we label the cations as Fe2+ or Fe(II), or Fe3+ or Fe(III).
Reply:So as not to confuse the number of atoms or moles involved.


e.g.


CuSO4


Cu(II)SO4


The Roman numeral 2 (II) indicates the oxidation state of copper; NOT the number of copper atoms, which is one. Oxygen has '4' to indicate the number of atoms present. The oxidation state of oxygen is '-2', which is not shown.
Reply:it's the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry's (IUPAC) procedure because certain compounds have varying oxidation states and so to distinguish one oxidation state compound from another you state the oxidation number of the cation
Reply:Because in all sciences latin is used for a universal language. So by inference, latin=roman numerals.


What is the suffix after Jr when naming a child after his father?

I think i asked this question the right way lol. thanks to all that helps

What is the suffix after Jr when naming a child after his father?
it depends. Normally, it would just be (example) John Smith, Jr. if he's just named after his dad. But if his grandfather is John Smith and his dad is John Smith,Jr then he's John Smith the third (Roman Numerals : III). But then again, sometimes people go by John Smith the second (II), so i'm not sure exactly what the difference is between The Second and Jr. i guess either The Second skips a generation like being named after his grandfather instead of his dad or Jr. requires the same first and middle name--both John David Smith-- but The Second could be John Quincy Smith and John David Smith. I'm not really sure how it works, but the suffix would be either Jr. or II. I'm pretty sure it's Jr.,though. But,again,it depends if his father is Jr. or not, but if he is, the son would be The Third or III.
Reply:The son would be the III (3rd)
Reply:I believe it is the Third (III).





ie: Jon Doe


Jon Doe Jr.


Jon Doe III
Reply:do you mean if dad is a jr, and you name the son after him? then its the 3rd. ex bob smith jr's son is bob smith the third.
Reply:the son of jr would be the 3rd : )
Reply:II (the second) I think
Reply:NOTHING.( FIRST,MIDDLE, LAST,JR)
Reply:The fifth one would be Jr., Jr., Jr., Jr.,...I think :D

Who has the final say in the naming the elements?

Like what governing body has a final say on the names of the elements.?

Who has the final say in the naming the elements?
Usually the discoverer names it, but the final decision is up to IUPAC, the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry. The heaviest known elements were discovered during the Cold War, and of course the Americans and Soviets both claimed to have discovered them first and tried to name them after their scientists, so IUPAC stepped in and named the new elements with a numeric code. That's why those elements have such odd names, like unnilquadium or unnilpentium. It's just Latin for "element number 104" or "element number 105". Some periodic tables still use the American names but most use IUPAC's.
Reply:I'm pretty sure that one is up to whoever discovered it first.

Can I get some suggestions on naming a business?

Hi all! My daughter and I are starting to make jewerly for craft shows. I also bake. On top of that I sell on ebay. I want to open and ebay store and incorporate all in one store. On ebay I normally sell educational materials, toys, kids clothes, housewares and the alike. I am just having trouble coming up with a name for the store. The jewerly is made from seashells. Her section was to be called She Sells Seashells...is that too hard to say? lol. I am just drawing a blank! I kinda wanted it to fit my User ID..but won't give since that may appear to be advertising. Suffice it to say it has to do with bears..teddy bears...kinda thing. So, can anyone think of a general name for all the goods we sell? Or even just a name for the store without the baked goods and jewerly. I can do the jewerly separate. The jewelry has a lot of seashells but won't be only that. Confused..need an idea! Thanks for your time, I appreciate it!

Reply:It is a pet name that the two of you have for each other. Some names can be said with others around then some are just kept between the two of you. I know this has nothing to do with a penis but I never knew it until after my mother passed away. But mom's pet name was cricket. How and why she had it i will never know but it was sort of cute for them. As for you naming his penis that is between you and him. I have nothing against it at all.

But for now, is it legal/ethical?





Thanks in advance!

You could focus on the soil with names that include names of red: Rose, Vermilion, Scarlet, Magenta, Crimson, Cardinal, Alizarin, Burgundy, Carmine, Chestnut, Fuchsia, Mauve, Rust, Sangria, Terra cotta, Amaranth, and Cerise.

As for the surname, one thing you can do is play with foreign languages and use a word to describe their personality, and people generally won't pick that up if they don't know the language you drew it from.





For example, in a story I wrote once, I named a German Special Agent 'Konstantin Schlagen.' His surname means: 'hitting' in German, which describes what he does, he is an eager fighter who is relentlessly pursues the criminals he's going after.





You said that she look's frightened, so might I suggest making her surname: ' Eagla?' From your description, she looks vaguely Irish; and 'Eagla' means 'scared' in Gaelic.





So my suggestion would be:





'Amber Eagla.'

Why is everyone naming their kid Aiden or something that rhymes with Aiden?

Is that the cool thing nowadays? Aiden, Braiden, Caiden, Jayden, etc.

Why is everyone naming their kid Aiden or something that rhymes with Aiden?
Its very popular and modern. I like it but Im thinking of naming my other kids old fashioned names, so I have a bit of a problem.





http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;...
Reply:i know!!! it all ends with an "en". LOL
Reply:It's probably popular because of the "Sex and the City" character. I wouldn't EVER use one of these names on my children, though Aiden is kind of cute. Brayden and Jayden I seriously dislike. And Caden? Seriously?





I'm with you!





http://www.babynames.com/namelist/934925...
Reply:Because no one can think for themselves anymore.
Reply:girls are a social bunch that rarely think for themselves. so it's common in a class of kids to have 5 -10 kids with the same first name. each year you have a popular a celebrity who's name gets used for the new babies arriving so you end up with a few million: heathers, michaels, antonys, ... i'm guessing there is a celebrity with some for of aiden in their name.
Reply:The trend with boys is Aiden, Brayden, Hayden, Jayden, Rayden, Zayden, C/Kaden





%26amp; it seems with girl names its anything with Elle or Ella








Not judging tho because i am a fan of some names:


Aiden, Brayden, Caden, Gabriella %26amp; Isabella :)
Reply:First, I am not some clueless, selfish 'girl'. I am a 30-something woman, who has never watched "Sex and the City" and really likes Irish/Scottish names. Faced with the possibility of a son named Adrian, I said no. I wanted a name that was close in sound to that. I went with Aidan. My son is 2 1/2, and at the time of his early birth, I was unaware that Aidan and similiar sounding names were as popular as they are. I would not change my son's name to appease anyone. He is Aidan (spelled correctly, mind you) William. If he ever has a sister or brother those names would also be Irish/Scottish origin: Elspeth and Declan. Can you find fault in those also?


I'm creating a book entitled shontisha williams guide to naming your black baby and I need some sister input?

I'm creating a book entitled shontisha williams guide to naming your black baby and I need some sister input?
I don't know whether to cry or laugh at Margeret's response - about being a sub who can't figure out how to pronounce her student's names, and would like people to refrain from assigning their children names that are creative and evocative of a rich cultural heritage, because she has a hard time pronouncing them.





I make it my business to learn my Kwacys, Chilembwes and Ashanti's, and to know which one of my students is Darren and which one is Darion. I think Leila and Lliana shouldn't get mixed up and I certainly can distinguish Pablo from Pedro. And a classroom of Rayshawns, Quintaras and Xoichotl's is a lot more interesting than a tedious grouping of Ryans, Madisons and Regans.





It always saddens me when i say a kid's name back and they look at me in astonishment and say "wow, you pronounced my name right." It makes me think there are a lot of people who just won't listen if the name doesn't have an anglo cadence.





It's funny because I grew up going to a school where a lot of kids had hebrew names and I remember how we used to mock the subs that mangled the names beyond recognition. The thing is, Akiva, Vered, Ronit and Gilad sounded completely normal to us, since we all knew multiple people with names that were representative of our jewish heritage and culture. I remember quite clearly very much enjoying a similar guide to jewish baby names, and looking up all the names of my classmates and friends.





I'd love to read "Shontisha's guide to naming your black baby" when it comes out and learning more of the stories behind my student's names!
Reply:I did a search, and I'm sure you know what's out there. I used a lot of info when I named my son, including his grandfathers' names, meanings and even initials. I wasn't looking for any nationality per se.





But I would like to say a little something regarding the comment about children's names. I was a teacher for almost five years (and might go back), and I had a number of children that said, when I asked to hear their name again, "You can call me..."





I said, "No. I want to call you by your name. You just need to help me." I spent time in a primarily Hispanic culture and can now have a much better Spanish accent. It takes practice.





I have a cousin that was adopted from Korea - they kept her Korean name for her middle name. Why? What's wrong with it being the first name?





My brother's children have names that are similar in both Spanish and English - that's an option.





What I hope is that you can find an angle which really hasn't been explored in the naming process. Pictures, similar names and spellings, numerology, I don't know, just something to make your book stick out.





I myself am of European descent, but my family is diverse, and I love it that way!
Reply:With a ghetto name like Shontisha who's going to take your book seriously. I mean you have to be kidding you want to write a book to naming a black child when in fact you shouldnt write on that subject because your first name sounds ghetto.
Reply:The girl's name Lela \l(e)-la\ is of Kiswahili origin, and its meaning is "black beauty". Also refers to "loyalty" in French.





The girl's name (Ashanti )\a-shan-ti, ash(a)-nti\ is of Ghanaian origin. From the name of a powerful African empire (17th to early 20th century). Today, names associated with the empire bring to mind power and victory. The name is used as a surname by the Akan people of Ghana, and also in modern American black families as a link to the African past.








The girl's name Ciara \cia-ra\ is pronounced kee-ARR-ah, see-ARR-ah. It is of Irish and Gaelic origin, and its meaning is "black". Modern coinage. Feminine form of Ciaran, the name of two major Irish saints. Can also be traced back to Chiara (Italian) "light", or to Sierra (Spanish) "saw".
Reply:I can't help, but I'd buy a couple of copies when you're done.
Reply:I have a favor.





Would you consider using African names for the child's middle name, and just give them a run-of-the-mill American name for the first name? In fact, a couple of my own kids have 2 middle names, perhaps you could encourage parents to do the same, but still use a standard American first name just for school. Lots of kids have nicknames which they use everywhere but at school, so this has a lot of precedent.





I sub in an inner-city pre-school, and it's just so hard to remember these names. I'm European in descent (Ireland mostly), and I just went to the Bible for my kids' names. I have a somewhat exotic middle name --it's Greek, it's Aurora--but it's my middle name. In the ordinary course of the day's events, no one has to contend with that awkward name. My first name is pretty standard, with standard spelling.





I know this is a different perspective, but I have heard kids complaining that the teacher cannot pronounce their name right, even now, toward the end of the school year. It's frustrating to the kids and embarrassing for the teacher.





So please consider my point of view when you write that book. We love all our students, and hate it when we have to look at a child and say, "young man" because we can't pronounce or can't recall the name.





Thanks!


Difference between the naming system of hindus and muslims?

what is the difference between the naming system of hindus and muslims





for example





hindus don't have middle names and their last name would be their father's first name.





muslims do it the same way, right?

Difference between the naming system of hindus and muslims?
I do not think it is to do with religion it is more of culture





because Indian muslims also similar to other Indians


and I have met some chinese with the same issue





but in the Arab Culture names take after a father and grand father sometimes to the 5th grand father in addition to the family name which could be a tribe can be listed though they can give 20 grandfathers if they are asked.


Is re-naming a dog confusing when it's already 1 year old?

There's the cutest dog at the local humane society, but I'm not happy with her name. If we do decide to get her, we want to give her a cuter name. She's barely a year old, but would it still confuse her if we re-named her?

Is re-naming a dog confusing when it's already 1 year old?
You can change a dog's name no matter what the age. When I adopted one of mine at 1 1/2 years...his name was "Otis." It only took him a couple of days to figure out he now had a new name.
Reply:It is actually very easy for a dog to learn a new name. But it might be eaiser if the name resembles starts with the same letter or rhymes with the old one. If the dog does respond to their old name do this trick for a week call them their old name and then their new name and slowly get rid of their old name. When the dog does somthing good give them a treat and use their name if you renamed the dog Sally say Sally is a good girl good girl Sally. Or have the dog sleep in your lap not only does this bulid a load of trust but you can stroke them and say there name!
Reply:no you could rename a dog at any time. It shouldnt confuse them. Especially if it's from a shelter. Sometimes they just give them names they dont necessarilty know them. Name her whatever you feel fits her
Reply:At first it can be, but if you keep calling him by the new name he will eventually get used to it. When i got one of my German shepherds we had to change his name but he was 1 and a half and he coped with it alright but it sounded quite similar to the name that he previously had so it did not confuse him too much.
Reply:Not at all JANE. Yes it will be confusing to the dog for a little while though the alternative is that no one adopts the dog and cares for it so it will be killed. I think it's great you're adopting and would prefer the dog had a name you were willing to keep though that's minor in comparison.
Reply:No- her name probably wasn't her name before she got to the shelter anyway. Before that who knows how many homes/names she has had.





I doubt she got alot of attention at the humane society and got used to her new name anyway :)
Reply:yes it is ! dont change you're dog's name when u do that you're changing him and his or her personality
Reply:Not at all. Dogs will rapidly adjust to learning a new name.
Reply:We got our dog when he was 8 months and we didn't like his name either. We changed it to a name that sounds similar (both 2 syllables that end in an "ee" sound). He figured out the new name right away and had no problems at all. Good luck! :)
Reply:no
Reply:No, it's no big deal to rename them, besides, the names mean more to us than them. If you can pick a name close to their current name they will catch on faster.

When I access a website there was a problem naming that Error converting data type nvarchar to numeric.?
Be sure, it's not your web browser!


This is an error, server side, that deals with converting characters into numerics.


This can happen for the following reasons:


1. you have stored a non numerical string in a nvarchar field of your database and then want it to be converted to a numerical value; Let's say "A13" is in your database, then since there is a A in the string it is not possible for youconverter to bring it back to numeric and thus you're having this error message.


2. you have a null value stored in that field


3. you have an integer longer than the numerical value you are using. For instance you coded in the database field a Long or Very Long integer while you converter can only converts to Small Integer.


4. you have a decimal in your database and want an Integer...

What's your opinion on naming your son/daughter the same name as your mother, father, etc?

What's your opinion on naming your son/daughter the same name as your mother, father, etc? I find it lazy and terrible. It lacks creativity.

What's your opinion on naming your son/daughter the same name as your mother, father, etc?
Sometimes it's tradition, and sometimes it's to honor the deceased.
Reply:in greece it's a tradition to name kids after their grandparents. It goes like that:





first son : father's father


second son : mother's father


first daughter : father's mother


second daughter : mother's mother


other child : parents choice





Not everyone does that but most families do. Some actually join the names of the two grandparents to one child.





btw in my family it goes through generations and all the males names are are the same from Grandad to grandson
Reply:It's tradition in many cultures. I'm of Irish descent and the common naming trend was/is (?)





first-born son: named for paternal grandfather


second-born son: named for maternal grandfather


first-born daughter: named for paternal grandmother


second-born daughter: named for maternal grandmother


subsequent children: named per parents' choice





Much of this has given way but the first-born son ritual is still viable. In my family, my grandmother was not close to her family and didn't want her 2nd son named for her father. By tradition, she was overruled. She never called my uncle by his given name but used a nn of her choice.





"...lazy and terrible. It lacks creativity."


NO, I feel you're wrong here. It's a tradition to honor the past, wonderful relatives, and such. It makes much more sense than being "creative" and "unique" and coming up with monstrosities as calling a child Feldspar or Phranque.
Reply:This happened twice on my dad's side of the family. It's a tradition. I actually find it rather innovative to name the daughter after the mother. You see dad and son having the same name often, but not mother/daughter. So, kudos to them.





I, personally, wouldn't name any of my children after me or the father. I am a baby name lover, and would want to pick out something new.





Another idea, which I have seen, is to use a variation of a name. Such as, a mom named Elizabeth uses Eliza for her daughter. And a dad named Alexander uses Xander for their son. I think this is pretty cool.
Reply:My father, grandfather, great-grandfather, and great-great-grandfather all have the same name. My great-grandfather was junior, grandfather was the III (3rd) and my dad is known as IV (4th). I think that is nice in a sense. The name is not a very common name either. Plus my dad, grandad, and great-grandpa were all in the military, so it shows a lineage in there. And since my dad is the only one alive now, it can honor my deceased relatives as well.


In general, I think it okay to name someone after a family member if it was tradition or if there is nicknames used for it. Like if you and your father were both named Joseph, your mom might call your dad Joe, and you Joey or just Joseph. Also if this has gone back for generations, like my family.


Another thing you could always do is change the name a little, to still honor a relative, but not copy their name, like how my mom was named, and how I have the same middle name as my mom and grandma. For example, if your grandmother's name is Kathryn, you could name your daughter Kaitlyn. Or if their name was Lucas, you could name your daughter, Lucille or Lucy. You can still honor a family member, just changing the name a little to make it different.





Hope this helps :D
Reply:In some cases it holds importance. My sister was named after my mom, but that was because she was born so early with so many complications no one thought she would live. They never really named her and the nurses just called her "little Mary" and my mom was "big Mary". The name stuck! My sister survived and to this day is still known as little Mary, lol.


When I was pregnant with my first we found out it was a BOY! From the start my husband was adamant he wanted his first son named after him. I was like, no way, I am not naming my son Alfred! He was so insistent and it was so important to him I finally gave in. To avoid confusion we call my son by his middle name Scott which apparently is pretty common. The name goes back for generations in my husbands family. I feel holding names in the family is actually important and holds great value, not lazy or terrible at all! For 4 generations on my side the middle name Noell has been used for girls and I used it for my second child, a girl. I get compliments all the time on how pretty it is!
Reply:Personally, I would rather give my child his or her own name so that they have their own identiy. I know a guy who was named after his father, but he was so much more like his mother (didn't look a thing like his dad) and he always felt that he didn't meet his father's expectations. BUT - it is also considered an honor to be named after a family member which the child could feel proud of.. so I see both sides.
Reply:Not nice.. happened to my mom.. but it was her stepmom who had the same name as my mom.. so my granddad called them by the same name and if he meant his wife he said.. xxx nr. 1 and xxx nr 2 if he meant my mom I find that horrible especially as my mom has a middle name.. he could have called her Joanna instead of by her first name which she shared with her stepmom.. her mom, Elizabeth Marie, had died at age 32 of pneumonia and her dad remarried after one year as he had 2 young children.. by coincidence his second wife had the same name as my mom.. but it's lousy to be called Nr. 1 and nr. 2 or Junior and senior for boys.. or ''Old man, and ''boy''





I think it's a little bit of arrogance if they voluntarily give the child the same name as the dad or the mom.. because they want their image to live on in their son or daughter instead of letting them be unique and individuals.. they can use their name as a middle name but i don't hold with naming a child after all the members of the family.. aunt cousins, MIL, grandmother.. that also gives the child no individulality. they can honor the dead by keeping them in their hearts and memory and the child can have an individual name. In the case of my mom.. it was unplanned and a coincidence that the stepma had the same name as my mom...and that her dad did not come up with calling one by the original name.. his wife and my mom Joanna.. that would have been better instead of calling them by numbers. Nr. 1 and Nr. 2.. Big xxx and little XXX..
Reply:I think you just trying to start arguments. I think it shows respect and that you want your child to have some of the same traits as your parents. When I have a girl her middle name is going to be the same as my mom's middle name and my middle name is the same as my grandma's middle name.
Reply:I think it's sweet to name your children after relatives for their middle names, I'm pregnant with triplets and the names I have right now are


Sophia Marie (Marie is after my grandmother)


Parker James (James is after my grandfather)


Connor Reid (Reid is after my husband's grandfather)
Reply:That depends on whether any family traditions exist. Some people are very strong on that stuff.


Our family made it a tradition to actually give a different name than any immediate family member.
Reply:Naming after parents or grandparents doesn't bother me too badly.


However, naming a child after yourself is one of my biggest pet peeves EVER!
Reply:a tribute if they are dead and atrocious if they are still alive.

Are there rules when it comes to naming your book?

Are there certain words that you can't have in the title of your book?


Can the publishing company you're working with tell you to change the title?




Are there rules when it comes to naming your book?
There are words and phrases that most publishers are very unlikely to use in book titles - things that are for the time period offensive or vulgar.





Generally, publishers will consider the author's preferred title, but ultimately they will want a title with the best market potential. They do not want to loose money on an otherwise good book because the title is bad. Often authors choose overly cryptic or bland titles (you can not imagine how many manuscripts are submitted every year with very similar titles like "Dark Mist"). If you really dislike the publisher's suggested title, your agent can help you find one the publisher will accept.





Cover art, too, is something the publisher has the final decision on. What the author envisions may not meet the current marketing trend. You may get to have an opinion on what they want to use, but again, unless you really dislike it, you're best move is to put your faith in their marketing expertise (this is their business and they hire knowledgeable people).





Self-publishers claim that the traditional houses somehow cheat authors out of the "big decisions" like title and art work choices, and they use that to bait new authors into their scams. Most authors do not have the required marketing skills and experience to make those decisions. Selfpublishers do not care if a book sells or not since they make their money off the author, not from actual sales (real publishers pay the author and make their profit from sales).


















Reply:Not really, unless you are trying to impersonate another book in order to trick consumers. You can't name your book Twilight 2, although you could name it Twilight as long as it wasn't about vampires (what is that book about?)





I would guess authors do choose their cover art based on a long-term relationships between authors and illustrators. Roald Dahl's illustrator is the only one I can think of right now, but that guy/girl did all his books.
Reply:The publisher will probably help with the title. They will also provide cover art. You'll have to be a best-selling author to have anything to say about the cover. You have to realize that the title, the cover art and the flap copy are all done to help sell the book. Publishers have people who know what will sell the best.
Reply:Publishing companies usually to change the title, actually, although the author usually has final say. Most of the time, cover-art comes from the publication company, too. They want something really eye-catching. I imagine that the author might have some choice, though.
Reply:My publisher had me send them the name that I wanted then told me that I needed to also list several other alternatives in case the title wasn't available or marketable.


As for coverart it depends on the publisher. My created my for me and ask if I liked it.
Reply:Most of the time the title is chosen by the publisher. Yet, you can make your own suggestions. For what I know, there are no rules, so to speak. Certainly a nice metaphor about current events or ways of saying is quite alluring.





Best of all!
Reply:Most of the time authors chose their own title and then their publishers or something "advise them" to chose something along those lines but more catchy if needed.





And as far as rules I'm not completely sure but I know it can't be any copyright or registered trade mark. Besides that I believe its free game


What is the common language for scientific naming?

What is the common language for scientific naming?





Spanish





French





English





None of the above

What is the common language for scientific naming?
For scientific naming? None of the Above. Latin is used most often for scientific names. We have Carolus Linnaeus to thank for that.
Reply:For making up names for sciency things, that would be a combination of greek and Latin, not any of those, however, English is practially the official language of science.
Reply:I agree
Reply:Latin... Some scientific disciplines are heavy research-wise in a specific language. I understand that Paleontology has lots of German language research. You would have to ask the Chair of your dissertation committee to learn what language or languages you will need to learn to be a lifelong science scholar.

Could you please assist me by naming different forms of video output and what it really is?

I'm doing a research paper, and when i search for video output, i find very little helpful information, so please help.

Could you please assist me by naming different forms of video output and what it really is?

Why do you suppose Latin was chosen as the language for the scientific naming system?

most scientists at the time spoke Latin, so most scientific names come from Latin


today, we still keep those scientific names, therefore, most of them are Latin

Why do you suppose Latin was chosen as the language for the scientific naming system?
Latin was the language of the educated. All the scholars knew it, and they were the ones usually figured things out. As time passed on, a lot of other languages came to be from Latin.
Reply:Thank all those Medieval monks who translated from Arabic and Greek the ancient scientific texts of the time into Latin, the language of the educated and the Church.
Reply:Linnaeus could not have used his own language - who would have understood him? and at that time, there was no dominant European language - except for Latin.


You can learn Latin for free here:

Reply:probably because Latin is the root of almost every language in the world
Reply:Because it was designed by Ancient Greeks %26amp; that's what they spoke? I don't know; I'm just guessing.

How do you go about naming your pets?

takes a while usually. we just keep tossing names out there and wait for one to stick.

How do you go about naming your pets?
i look at the markings the pets have. (eg. all paws the same colour - socks; patch of different coloured fur over an eye - spot; fluffy fur - Fluffy; etc.). I also go by common names or famous animal names. (Parot - Polly; Dog [female] - Lassie; Cat - Fat Louis[Princesses Diary's Cat]; etc)





Also, I might wait awhile to see the pets personality. (eg. Always getting into trouble - Rascal)
Reply:i look at them and see if they look like a name. then i start thinking what they look like and i get a name. OR i think of a radom name or a name i like!





our familys pets names are


Marshmellow %26amp; Buzz (bunnies)


Spunky (hamster)


Bluber %26amp; Boo (frogs)


Candie Kanas (hermit crabs)


Canto %26amp; Gizmo %26amp; Sparkle %26amp; Speckle %26amp; Larance (goldfish)


Freddie %26amp; Moonshine (bettas)
Reply:I always choose weird or different names. Maybe from a book or from a movie. Like I have or had animals that I named this...





Cat's


Pooh bear


Jabber AKA Jabberwocky and Tom (we had 2 names for him) I got this name "jabber" from a book "Corey's Fire" I loved this book when I was a child.





General Tso's (fiancee named, why I don't know)





Dog's


Precious - She is such a cute dog!!

Reply:I give them a few days so I can get to know them. I usually pick something from Ireland because that is my heritage, but my cat picked his own name... After hiding out for a day he came out and decided to reach up onto the t.v. nd watch "Tarzan" the Disney movie... Then hissed at the "Scary" parts. So I named him Tarzan
Reply:I always choose something that I really like but would never name a child and what I feel might fit their personality





Although my dog is named Chloe which I love and is a very pretty child's name but I just wouldn't name my actual child that name ~ my dog is my lil child though ;~) Haaa





Getting a baby name book is great to name your dog as well
Reply:well there is a few ways you can go online and they can give you a gaint list and you can chose that way by clickling on a letter and names will apear or you can give your pet a name by its personality or looks i am geting a dog soon and i too am having trouble thinking of names
Reply:I go on line and type in Bird or Cat names and they give you a list. My mom and siblings all decide on what kind of name with like and what sounds good. We make a list of the names we like and based on that we take a vote and we have a name.
Reply:My 2 females, about 13 months old were named for my late parents, Sammi %26amp; Toni. My 6 month old male kitten, given to me by my boss at retirement, is Bearcat, because, before I ever saw him, my boss said he looked like a tiny black bear.
Reply:i hink of soemethign that the anilmal reminds me of, like another animal or something and i thin kof names that would make me think of the animal tada i have a name like my chihuahua yoggi (he looks like a little bear)
Reply:It takes a few days. You have to spend time with the new pet, and get to know its personality. That, combined with its appearance, will usually give you some ideas for names.
Reply:I think of a character I like from a film, TV series or book. Something different and distinctive is good.
Reply:If they're cute, then I name them after someone or something cute. I want a puppy, like a Maltese or a Bischon, I will name it Pancakes or Muffin. Something along those lines. Good luck. :)
Reply:We took the name of our pet, and kinda used the type of pet and I guess rearanged the letters forming a name we liked.
Reply:I usually search on the internet for pet names. It's kind of a brainstorming process and then something will "just be right". Good Luck!

I have a question about naming compounds?

By only looking at the location of elements on the periodic table, how do you know when to use prefixes (mono, di, tri, tetra...) when naming compounds with two elements?

I have a question about naming compounds?
In naming a binary compound place the metal name first then the nonmetal and add ide. There sometimes are a few letters dropped in the nonmetal, but there is no rule. The number of each atom is not needed in the name except for tranistion metals where the oxidation number is given as a Roman numeral in parantheses.
Reply:its depends on oxidation state of any of the items
Reply:Lancenigo di Villorba (tv), Italy





Dear Lady,





your question concerns the procedure for binary compound's denomination.


As you know, the latters are chemical compounds formed by only two chemical elements.


IUPAC rules stated that you individuate "element leader" among chemical element presents, e.g. usually least spread chemical element: Moreover, among chemical elements there are someones very spread, the latters forming "binary compounds" which specially denominated : e.g. it appears term "oxides" about binary compound's oxygen, nitrides for nitrogen, chlorides for chlorine, etc.


Done, on the basis of "defined proportion or Proust's law" you can assign greeks prefixes for indicate atomic mutual proportions. You finished.





For example, CO2 containts two only chemical elements (e.g. carbon and oxygen) who appears in a finite proportion as 1 : 2 (one to two). Then, you will write "carbon di-oxide".





I hope this helps you.
Reply:Use prefixes only when both elements are non-metals.


Like Carbon dioxide (non-metals)

What do you think about naming a baby after your own mother?

My husband and I are considering naming our baby after my mother. (she is still living) My husband seems to think his mother wouldn't mind, but I'm not convinced. We both love and respect my mother dearly, and like her name a lot. anyways...any thoughts? i'm curious if other people have done this.

What do you think about naming a baby after your own mother?
I think it's a wonderful way to honor your mother and I don't think anyone would be jealous. But personally, I was named after my aunt and I hate it. Everyone calls me by my first and middle name to differentiate me from my aunt. I vowed to never name my kids after a living family member
Reply:I think it's a wonderful idea and a great way to honor your parent. Now, if you think it's going to cause some 'issues' with the mother-in-law (and if that will really bother you) you could reconsider. In the end, do what YOU want, it's YOUR baby.
Reply:I would definitely name a child after my mother. I plan on using a variation of her mn as a middle name for my future daughter.
Reply:If you have a good relationship with your mother I think that would be a great honor for your mother. My Mother, grandmother and great-grandmother were all named after my great-great grandmother. Every other generation goes by their middle name.





Also did you ever think of using your mother's name as a first name and his mother's name as her middle name.





My brother's first name is my mother's father's name and his middle name is my father's father's name.
Reply:i had thought of that for my first daughter but we decided to make my mothers name her middle name so we came with





Janaye Eloise!





as her first and middle name but its very common lots of people name children after family
Reply:MY first daughter was suppose to have my mothers middle name Alexis-Octavia-SUE...but my hubby filled out the paperwork wrong and Sue never got on there...with our second daughter he wanted to have his mother's middle name in there because she had had a heartattack and that was that...so she has his mothers middle name and if this baby is a girl she will have my mom's middle name.


Personally now that we have done it once,I don't think its a good idea,because I felt horrible when my mom found out that our youngest had his mom's middle name...my mom said she didn't mind but I still mind...hell I don't even like his mom anyway so that makes it even worse,but if I had my way then our daughter would be just like our oldest and have her own name andnot be named after anyone because personally all I feel is,it brings on problems.


If you two are dead set on the name then go for it...there is nothing wrong with it especially if you both agreed on it and are comfortable with doing this...or if it will prevent a problem then don't do it at all or use both of their names in your daughters names...like the first name be you rmom's and the middle be his mom's or give her two middle names with both parents names incorporated into it.


Good Luck
Reply:whats her name?
Reply:Naming your baby after your mother is a lovely thought. If you're worried about how your mother in law would feel, you should talk to her instead of worrying about it and then depriving your child of a beatiful family name. If your mother in law would feel hurt and left out if the kid isn't named after her, maybe you could give the child her name (or middle name) as her middle name. That might make it better.





Either way, congradulations!
Reply:No. I don't know your mother.
Reply:If I were to ever name my daughter (I don't have one, but it's nice to dream, lol) I would most definitely name her after my own mother. I think that you should name your child whatever your heart desires.
Reply:Well I think its very good... no disrespect but.. your mother will be


be always remembered... as u call your daughter by the name...


even after she past away...
Reply:I think its a lovely idea and if you really like the name even better. Best of luck.
Reply:if her name is nice go ahead
Reply:I wouldn't see how this would be an issue. I mean, maybe use his mothers name as a middle name. Or a nickname of her name as a nickname. Or something that symbolizes her. If that is an issue. Otherwise, I think it's lovely. You both have a special place in your heart for your mother and paying a tribute to her like that would be very sweet. If you decide against using it as a first name, definitely consider it for a middle name. :) Good luck and Congratulations!
Reply:i would do what my mom did..my middle name is my mothers middle name. not my first....but i have heard that mother have done that before


~V~
Reply:I think it's a great idea. Plus, if you have another daughter maybe you could name her after the other grandmother! Anyways, it doesn't matter, they are your kids, and if you like the name then go for it. It all depends on what the name is though...maybe if it's a long name like Katherine or something you could have a nick name like Kate or Katie that way you wouldn't get confused. Also, you could use her name as a middle name if you wanted. Thats what my mother did with me, however she didn't make my sister's middle name after my paternal grandmother, and she never really minded (my grandmother didn't). I did that with my children too...I have two daughters and one is named after their paternal grandmother and since I don't really like my mothers name (it's Frances...not the best middle name!) I used my sister's name instead, that way there's kind of a balance.





Anyways, I'm done writing my book now ;) I think you should go for it. Whats the worst that could happen? Good Luck %26amp; Congratulations!
Reply:Well it depends on the baby. if it is a boy or girl. plus id use it as a middle name


it sounds better.
Reply:I haven't done this myself but if you both agree that you like her name and she's a good person than this would be a great way to honor her.


But I did see Monica and Chandler name one of their adopted babies after Monica's father, Jack, on the TV series FRIENDS.
Reply:I think it's a great idea if you both like the name and are in agreement. If you're worried about your mother-in-laws feelings, use her name as the middle name. That way you honour both grandmothers.
Reply:maybe use his mothers name as a middle?
Reply:i agree w/ danie. but if it's too old fashioned you can always pick a more traditional name and use 2 middle names. this is what my sister has done with all three of her kids - she has a 2 1/2 year old son and 3 month old identical twin girls.
Reply:First, what's her name?





Secondly, consider naming her your mom's name and his mom's name as the middle name.
Reply:Many people name their children after their mothers or some other relative who is important to them. Naming your child after your mother is a wonderful way to honor your mom and give your child a constant reminder of a great role model. If you are afraid you will offend your husband's mother, use your mother's name as the first name and your mother-in-law's name as the middle name or vice versa.


Congratulations and good luck!
Reply:I am a grandma and I would be totally and completely excited and honored if one of my kids chose to name one of their kids after me.





It would be wonderful.
Reply:I think it's fine!! It's a great way to respect your mother and if you really like her name, then it's awesome!!! One thing that you could do is give the baby your mother in law's name or middle name if you don't like her first name as the baby's middle name. That way, you can honor both parents!! Good luck!!
Reply:I think it's a very nice idea to honor your mother and child in that way :)


Why the delay in naming a special prosecutor?

The nation is demanding justice and to sieze the corrupt booty from the crooks and begin the trials. There will never be confidence until the crooks pay. We are drifting, bleeding and the rage and depression whirls throughout every community in America.





Only people like Pelosi and Maria Antquinette (sp?) are oblivious to the intensity of this crisis. Only they would say, If they are out of bread, "let them eat cake."
