Description

The Asking Eric advice column is written by R. Eric Thomas.

Dear Eric: This is not an earth-shattering question, yet I’d appreciate an opinion. We call our firstborn son by his middle name because his first is the same as his father’s middle, who also goes by his middle name. This practice goes back generations on my husband’s father’s side. Imagine my confusion, years ago, when I learned of the tradition and discovered that our as-yet-unconceived son had already been given a first name (but we could choose the middle).
