How do i find out why sport teams were named the name they have?

ex. the steelers? is ther a website or somthing or an easier way then reading through so much history?

How do i find out why sport teams were named the name they have?
In professional sports, most teams' websites and/or media guides do have sections on team history, where you can get that information. If something's interesting enough, it's worth a little research =)





The Steelers:

Do you think a child should get their own unique name, or be named after a family member?

I think that is a very good question. I feel that if it is a name of like maybe a great-grandmother or great-grandfather, someone not in the very immediate family, then it is okay. But I do feel that a child should have his or her own identity. I am personally against a son having his own fathers name, being a Jr or even a II or a III, or so on. I feel like it makes them have to live by an image of who they were named after. It is not allowing them to be themselves.





Hope this helps!

Do you think a child should get their own unique name, or be named after a family member?
I think it all depends on the person who is having the child. For me we used family names for the middle names of our children. My husband and I both have a grandfather named william and a grandmother named anne so we have used these as middle names of all our children in the hopes of passing down a family name from both sides. But again, it all depends on the person and weather they see it as fit for a family name to be passed on.
Reply:I think that either way..as long as you pick a name that has meaning to you (either because of the meaning of the name, the beauty of the name, or because it belonged to someone special), it is perfect! For me... our daughter's have their own unique names (but names that have special meanings and that my husband and I think are BEAUTIFUL), and if we ever have a son, he will be named after my husband's grandfather and my dad (first and middle). So I like it both ways! :o) I hope that helps! Good luck!
Reply:I think you can honor a family member but still give a child their own name. My daughter we named after 2 of her grandmas and 2 of her great grandmas. One grandma we gave her the same initials as. My grandmas name was Betty Jane, I named my daughter Bryana Jean-Marie. Jean is my husbands moms middle name and his grandmas middle name, and Marie is my moms middle name. Good luck:)
Reply:Both!





I think that using a middle name that is part of the family is very cool. My son's middle name is Daddy's first name. So he isn't a junior, but still like dad.


A girl's name that we're considering has my maiden name as her middle name.


A boys' name that we're considering has an uncle's name because he died unexpectedly and young, and it is a nice way to remember him.





But their first names can be unique.
Reply:I think they should have their own name. And if you want to name them for a family member it should be a middle name. I think it's just weird when kids are named after their mum or dad, it's not so bad when they're named after grandparents because at least they're not living in the same house. My dad was the seventh John Wilson Harkness in his family, my mum refused point blank to carry the name into another generation and called my brother Simon Fraser. None of us have a family name.
Reply:I think that the last name usually shows enough relation to a family member. I HATE it when men name theirs sons after themselves exactly. (ie. Charles Edwards III!)





Otherwise, I think it's okay. Personally I would rather have my own unique first name, and maybe a middle name after someone else.
Reply:combination





My full name is Laura (unique) Jane (my grandma) Cavaghan (family surname) Perce (real surname)





My baby daughter is going to be called Rosemary (unique) Chiara (after my mum Claire - it's the Italian version)





I think honouring the family in a small way is lovely but I don't really have a strong preference either way - completely unique or completely family-honouring names are both lovely ideas!
Reply:sometimes its culture. I know some who have done this. I did name all my boy children voluntarily after family except my daughter and I was given slack so families in this day and age who do this are a bit wrong. It's really up to the mother and father. We named our first son 's middle name after my dad because there are no boys on my side to carry on our rare last name. And We named our second son after my fil because he is a sweet man. But my daughter I wanted to name her a name that was to my heart. My mother's family felt I should ahve named her after her in her memory but I no longer speak to them. they were ugly about it and I wasnt going to ahve them do that to me over my daughter.
Reply:I think that their first name should be unique, or at least not the same as their mum or dad. Honouring a dead family member is nice, but not if it's a very old-fashioned or ugly name. If you wanted to do that, then you could use a variation of the name or make it their middle name.
Reply:Both, thats what I did I named my son Simon- unique Harry- after his Grandpa


my daughter: Rayden- unique Monica- after my sister! hope this helps
Reply:I like unique names as the first name, and use a family name as a middle name, no need having 2 or 3 of the same name in one family.
Reply:it depends what you like i like unique first names and then possibly family names for the middle name just depending.
Reply:i think they should get there own unique name and maybe and a middle name of there father or mother or grandparents.
Reply:I think first names should be something that is their own and middle names for family names.
Reply:name it Autumn..

Reply:I would consider using most of these names! I'll go through and rate. 1-10





Savannah -10 || Love this name. I really do. It is pretty and unique. I would use it.





Abella - 8 || I would consider it, especially since I love unique names..but I don't generally like "-bella".





Caroline - 7 || I like it--very classic name..but I know a lot of older ladies named this, and I couldn't picture giving a baby the name.





Tessa - 5 || I knew someone named Tessa and she wasn't the kindest person, so I don't like it. Of course, personal experience shouldn't matter to others--but you asked my opinion. I wouldn't name my kid this.





Sadie - 7||I would consider it, but I don't think I would use it. It is cute, and I know someone I care about by this name.





Lauren - 3|| No, too common. I wouldn't use it.





Kylie/Kylee 10 || Love it. Really do. I would use Kylie, just because it looks the best to me.





Amber 3|| So common. I know way too many people with this name, and I like names that stand out a little.





Anna 8 || Okay, this is a a common name--I know! I just can't help but love it. I would use it.





Josephine 8|| I love it, but I wouldn't use it. It's my cousins name.





Madelyn 9 || Love this name! I really do. I love the full name the best, but the nicknames are pretty, too.





Abigail 6|| I used to hate it, but then I watched the show NCIS and have begun to like it a little better...





Georgia 4|| Nope. Too much like George.





Loretta 6 || I like this name! My problem with it is how it looks. I would consider it


Amy 9 || I love this name, but prefer spelling it Aimee. That way it is a little more unique :D

My friend is having a baby boy and naming him Jesus Adams. What do you think of this name?

I truly think it is blasphemy. Jesus is supposed to be the name with all power, and this little kid is not the son of God.

My friend is having a baby boy and naming him Jesus Adams. What do you think of this name?
Another virgin birth, right? Yeah. Sure.
Reply:I dont think its a good idea to name the baby Jesus. Jesus is an original person who should NOT be duplicated. Only Him should be worthy of the praise and not its duplicate. Since i downing this idea...here are some suggestions: (I see your into the holy names):





Jonah Adams


Nathan Adams (1 Chronicles 14:4)


Ephraim Adams (2 Kings 6:5)


Matthew Adams


Aaron Adams (Leviticus 13:1)

Reply:I never heard anyone named it but i personally would not due it it is to much to live up to for the name....
Reply:I like it. Does you friend have any more kids? Moses Adams, Satan Adams, Eve Adams........
Reply:I kno it's a pretty popular latino name pronounced "he-sus". I don't care for it much tho.
Reply:I think it's stupid.
Reply:i don't like it.
Reply:well not offence but it sounds like you are combinding two relgions like becasue catholic=jesus and jewish=adam.


but if the family is a mix. then i think that it would make a lot more sence.
Reply:What's her name Mary Eve, ?
Reply:In the Hispanic world, this is not unusual. I personally would name my child something else because I believe that Jesus' name is a name above all names. It's the highest name in the universe. It doesn't belong to a man.





TX Mom
Reply:Cool name..so unusual ;)
Reply:How is she pronouncing it? Hay-Soos or Geez-us? Idk, I think that's a little weird.
Reply:They say imitation is the greatest form of flattery. But in this case I believe that with the name Jesus the child will have a lot to live up to, not forgetting the many teases he will have throughout his life which may make him a hard man.


Try and advise your friend that as noble as the name may be choosing something more appropriate would serve the interest of the child much better.


Good Luck


P.S I hope the next is not a girl and have her named Mary!!
Reply:oh dear!
Reply:I think he will be teased a lot.
Reply:If is is pronounced the Spanish way with a second syllable pronounciation as "Hay ZEUS" , but otherwise no.
Reply:OMG YOU CAN NAME A KID JESUS !?!?!?!? THATS SO COOL! WHEN HE GOES TO SCHOOL PEOPLE ARE GONNA MAKE FUN OF HIM UNLESS HE'S REALLLY GOOD LOOKING, BUT THERES NOTHING WRONG WITH NAMING A KID JESUS UNLESS THE BIBLE SAYS ITS BAD!! AND I DONT THINK IT DOES!





WELL GOOD LUCK JESUS! (UM THE BABY) LOL
Reply:dont seem to fit together well, and jesus well I dont know
Reply:Jesus is a common hispanic name and it's really your friend's choice, not yours. If she's hispanic and her husband is not, maybe she is choosing to show her culture in her child's first name.





It could be worse, anyhow. There's a child in my daughter's class named Abcde. And once, when my husband was working in a hospital, a child was brought in who was named Diablo (means devil in Spanish).
Reply:She needs to think again. Calling him that will make life extremely difficult for the child as he grows up. People need to take more care in naming children!
Reply:I don't like it, why would they pick a Spanish or Mexican first name and an american middle name. That is kind of ODD...
Reply:Actually I prefer Adam Jesus.


Adam, after all came before Jesus, It just sounded nicer to me. (Also, I don't like the S after Adam. )
Reply:It sounds pretty nice. But I personally wouldn't name my child that.
Reply:I like Adam Jesus. Adam Jesus is a beautiful name.
Reply:dont do that to the baby......he going to have a screwed up life; what did the baby ever do to her?!





.....poor baby; c'mon now ppl please dont get crazy with the names!!!
