FYI, a common practice to naming a newborn is combining mom and dads names and coming up with a totally new name, hence all the unusual names in NC.



I know, silly thread, but good FYI.

When did they start this practice? I usually meet (young) men with names like Ali, Ahmet, Mehmet, Hussein, Arkan, Mohammet! Can you give examples of combined, totally new names?

Dutch, of course there are the traditonal names or named after someone, but any name that you dont recognize find out mom and dads name and any money its a combo or anagram of his and hers.
