I unknowingly named my son after his Finnish paternal great grandfather, using the American version of his name. I also named my dog (first and middle name) after a great, great aunt and didn’t know until I started my ancestry search. 😂

I did the same with my only daughter, whom I named after my deceased father never knowing him or his name.
