ABOUT NAMES




What's with naming kids today? A sample of unusual names is shown on this birthday board at a Yuma elementary school. Whatever happened to Robert, John, Richard and William. They may be old-fashioned but they are easy to pronounce. There is a girl in my family with the name Arya. In case you are wondering its pronounced Ah-Wray-Ah. I can just imagine the kids at school asking "Are Ya?"I guess it comes by the melting of culture and perhaps the hope that a different name will make a child distinctive in their own right.
