[Opinions] Re: Donald
in reply to a message by Starving Artist
Well, I'm no help here, because I agree with you on Donald. I just think it is incredibly dated. I guess it could experience a comeback. But even if the name was "in" I wouldn't like it.
Donald is my grandfather's middle name, and the name he uses. It was supposed to be his first name, and I may have shared the reason why it became his middle name before, but can't remember. Not that I want to disrespect my late great grandparents, but their reason for deciding at the last minute to put Donald in the middle slot was sort of stupid. Anyway, his first name, which was originally supposed to be his middle name is Paul, which I just think is light years ahead of Donald as far as being timeless.
It's nice that your SO wants to honor his father however, and I don't see why Donald can't be a middle name.
