Help[Opinions] Re: Not Enough Nelsons
in reply to a message by Gaia
Even without looking them up I can say there is a very good chance this is an LDS (Mormon) family.
All of the capital letters in the middle reminds me of a woman I knew whose name was SuZanne. When she was born some lawyer friend of her parents told them it was really important to make their child's name "unique" in some way because they had a common surname like Smith, and so when they died it was possible that some other Suzanne Smith would show up and claim to be the heir mentioned in their will. I thought that was an amazingly paranoid bit of advice as I don't see that as a realistic worry.
I of course don't think this family had the same lawyer and just think they are being creative. Of course they'd never think of spelling a son's name as ParKer or BeckHam. :)

I was at school with a Suzanne Smit, and she never had a moment of trouble. (Smit is the Dutch and Afrikaans version of Smith, and just about as popular.) Nor did another school friend - Ann Jones.
