I'm talking about between two European/European descended people here. Should the heritage of both parents be represented in the child's name? I want my child to have a German/ic name to represent that side of its heritage, but I don't want to it sound ridiculous with the rest of their name either. I think it's a nice gesture, but I also think it sounds ridiculous when you have a "Alejandro Schmitz" or "Freya Popovic" . I think in most cases the first name should match the origin/culture of the surname and perhaps a nice solution could be to include a middle name that represents the other parents heritage?
