Re: What’s In A Name?

Tee hee Kerrie, these things do happen, don't they? My daughter's boyfriend is called Hind and my grandaughter is hoping that, if they get married, she would not be persuaded to take his name, becoming Abbie Hind.

Actually, Jambutty, think how double-barrelled names came about was if say the Lord of the Manor had his way with one of the local ladies, and an offspring was produced, then that offspring would bear both their names, pointing out that it was a b*stard. So always amuses me when people adopt this type of surname.
