I share my first name with my father and my brother, but it is so neat that it really only should work as an accessory name imho. I'm not any troubled by it, only when people refer to me using it. I correct them by voicing my middle name.

For example, Maria Theresa, who was Marie Antoinette's mother had sixteen children, thirteen of whom survived infancy. She had eight living daughters and every single one of them was named Maria, including Marie Antoinette whose birth name was Maria Antonia. Maria Theresa even had among her children three daughters all named Maria Carolina, but two of them died as babies. They were referred to by their middle names and nicknames, but I found it odd. Eight daughters all named Maria, isn't that confusing? Apparently this trend had made a resurgence. Like George Foreman for instance, all five of his sons are named George and they're referred to as George #1, George #2 and so on. I understand you may love a name, but come on. Names are unique identifiers so that a person can stand out and be individual. If you have five children and they're all named Chris, I'm sorry but that's not cool. That just damages a child's self esteem, they probably fell like they have no individuality because in their family they're just another Maria. I don't agree with it personally and I'd never do it but you share your opinions about parents naming multiple children the same name. Love it or hate it? What do you think about the thing?
