[Opinions] Re: Using a name from another culture as an American
in reply to a message by Olwen
I would expect a person with a name specific to my culture to have a close connection to it. I find it weird if there is no connection.
I find it distasteful if someone misuses elements of my culture (i.e. uses patronymics, surnames or diminutives as first names).
Mispronunciation may also be annoying.My PNL http://www.behindthename.com/pnl/111792
