In the topic of funny names, the truth is not about Orthodoxy. A friend told me that she came from such a huge patriarchal Kurdish-Russian-Armenian family. And in this patriarchal family, smiling at the community, everyone is ruled by the elder, then by the grandfather.
And here, his youngest son was born a child, a boy. Grandfather immediately solemnly announces that he will be called the little one in honor of his father. My grandfather’s father’s name was Vaginal.
The family is hysterical, the mother-in-law from the nursery calls, cries that it is better not to return home than to call the native child Vaginal, the son and so to the grandfather is trying to approach, and he stood up and all - so my father was called, wonderful name and I don't want to hear anything! The rest of the family members, whom this trouble did not touch, rushed.
In the end, the family solemnly announced to the grandfather that he is so loved, respected and can not live without him, that they sleep and see that the little one should be named in honor of the grandfather himself. And some next baby (here all the sons, apparently, vowed not to make more sons) may already be vaginal.
My grandfather has an unusual name, Prince. But here, as a friend summed up, "everything, but not the vagina"
