I just found out my great grandma’s name was [name_f]Augusta[/name_f] Johannas Wilhemina. My grandmother is [name_f]Loretta[/name_f] [name_f]Irene[/name_f]. My mom’s mother was [name_u]Kay[/name_u] [name_f]Mary[/name_f] and my grandfather was [name_u]Howard[/name_u] [name_m]Robert[/name_m]. Opinions? What is your name tree?
My maternal grandparents and their parents, my great-grandparents:
[name_m]Ronald[/name_m] [name_m]William[/name_m], parents were [name_m]Ernest[/name_m] [name_m]George[/name_m] and [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f]
[name_u]Evelyn[/name_u] [name_f]Rose[/name_f], parents were [name_u]Sydney[/name_u] [name_m]Herbert[/name_m] and [name_f]Violet[/name_f] Everlyn
My Paternal grandparents, and their parents, my great-grandparents:
[name_m]Herbert[/name_m] [name_m]Charles[/name_m], parents were [name_f]Annie[/name_f] [name_f]Nancy[/name_f] [name_f]Thelma[/name_f] and [name_m]Herbert[/name_m] [name_m]Charles[/name_m]
[name_f]Dawn[/name_f] [name_f]Lorraine[/name_f], parents were [name_u]Joyce[/name_u] [name_u]Vivien[/name_u] and [name_m]Ernest[/name_m] [name_m]Albert[/name_m]
So I had two great-grandfathers called [name_m]Ernest[/name_m], one from either side
These are all great names. I would keep [name_u]Howard[/name_u] and [name_m]Robert[/name_m] in the middle, since they’re not quite ready for a revival – though I love [name_u]Robin[/name_u] as an honor name for [name_m]Robert[/name_m]!
As for the rest, you could make some excellent combos. [name_f]Augusta[/name_f] [name_u]Kay[/name_u], [name_f]Willa[/name_f] [name_u]Jo[/name_u], [name_f]Hanna[/name_f] [name_f]Irene[/name_f], [name_f]Loretta[/name_f] [name_u]August[/name_u]…
Mum’s side:
Grandparents - [name_m]John[/name_m] [name_m]Thomas[/name_m] and [name_f]Margaret[/name_f] (not sure she has a middle - will have to ask Mum!)
Great-grandparents - [name_f]Ada[/name_f] & [name_u]James[/name_u], [name_f]Ida[/name_f] and [name_m]John[/name_m]
Dad’s side:
Grandparents - [name_f]Helena[/name_f] [name_f]Sophie[/name_f] and [name_m]Arthur[/name_m] [name_m]Gordon[/name_m]
Great-grandparents - no idea! Dad’s parents died when he was young, I don’t think he ever knew his grandparents
[name_m]Arthur[/name_m] and [name_f]Margot[/name_f] (to honour [name_f]Margaret[/name_f]) are my top two names currently. [name_f]Helena[/name_f] is my second favourite girls name. I have [name_m]John[/name_m] as a middle for [name_m]Arthur[/name_m], and I would also consider using [name_f]Ada[/name_f] as a nickname for [name_f]Adelaide[/name_f] I love family names, and I have a lot to choose from!
Mom’s side:
[name_m]Bruce[/name_m] [name_u]Howard[/name_u] - parents: [name_f]Irene[/name_f] & Murdo [name_m]Henry[/name_m]
[name_f]Irene[/name_f] - [name_f]Bernice[/name_f] and [name_m]John[/name_m]
Murdo - [name_m]Angus[/name_m] & [name_f]Helen[/name_f]
*Murdo’s siblings were [name_m]Tom[/name_m] & [name_f]Flora[/name_f]
[name_m]Bruce[/name_m] is married to [name_f]Barbara[/name_f]
[name_f]Barbara[/name_f] [name_f]Jane[/name_f] - [name_m]Hector[/name_m] [name_u]Campbell[/name_u] & [name_f]Margaret[/name_f] [name_f]Florence[/name_f]
[name_f]Margaret[/name_f] [name_f]Florence[/name_f] - [name_f]Jane[/name_f] & [name_m]Arthur[/name_m]
[name_m]Hector[/name_m] [name_u]Campbell[/name_u] - [name_m]Robert[/name_m] & unknown
Dad’s side:
[name_f]Carol[/name_f] [name_f]Elaine[/name_f] & [name_m]Allan[/name_m]
[name_m]Allan[/name_m]'s real name was [name_m]Albert[/name_m] [name_m]Abraham[/name_m] but he didn’t know that until he was like 18 and had gone by [name_m]Allan[/name_m] his whole life. His hebrew nameis Aviam aba ben shloma. [name_f]Carol[/name_f]'s hebrew name is Chasa [name_f]Elka[/name_f] bat [name_f]Sarah[/name_f] [name_f]Lea[/name_f].
[name_m]Allan[/name_m]'s parents are: [name_u]Sam[/name_u] & [name_f]Esther[/name_f]. [name_u]Sam[/name_u]'s parents are Isrulka** & [name_f]Golde[/name_f]. [name_f]Esther[/name_f]'s parents are [name_f]Sheva[/name_f] and Yoshia Alter.
[name_f]Carol[/name_f]'s parents are [name_f]Emma[/name_f] and [name_m]Albert[/name_m]. [name_f]Emma[/name_f]'s parents are [name_f]Sarah[/name_f] and Asneal. [name_m]Albert[/name_m]'s parents are [name_m]Hyman[/name_m] & unknown.
** Isrulka’s parents were [name_m]Avraham[/name_m] & Frajda. So I can count back to one set of my great-great-great grandparents.
This is the line: Me, My Dad, [name_m]Allan[/name_m], [name_u]Sam[/name_u], Isrulka, [name_m]Avraham[/name_m].
So my Dad’s, Dad’s, Dad’s, Dad’s, Dad. So [name_m]Avraham[/name_m] was the person who I got my last name from!
I was adopted, so I’ve recently been researching my biological family tree. I’m half Cuban half [name_m]French[/name_m]. I’m honestly not sure about these though, they’re just suspicions of people who may be my grandparents or greats or aunts…
