[Opinions] Mactavish?
What do you think about using a version of my "maiden" name as a name for a son? I put "maiden" in quotes because I didn't change my name from Thompson, which comes from the Scottish name MacTavish - son of Tomas. We are planning on using both of our last names, though not hyphenated, for our children.
Example: Mactavish Eli Thompson M________. So my question to you is: is it strange, redundant, or too self-promoting to use Mactavish, a version of my last name, as a fn for a son - with the nn Mac? And what do you think of the name Mactavish (nn Mac) in and of itself? Thanks!~ EM
