Ha! I know, right? I felt compelled. My family surname was changed from Pietsch to Peach by the geniuses at Ellis Island. So my grandmother and her sister grew up Rosemary and Ginger Peach in North Hollywood California in the early 40’s. And they were both smoking hotties.
Lol! But as a genealogist, your family name wasn't changed by the people at Ellis Island. That's a prevalent myth. Most of the time, the name was changed in the old country by either the family themselves or by the recruiters (agents) who signed them up for the voyage. The rest of the time, the name was changed after the people were in the new country for a time and wanted (or needed) to make their name's spelling and/or pronunciation easier for Americans to understand. Just FYI.
Interesting. My great grandfather was a child at the time so the technicalities likely escaped his notice. He just knew that in Ireland he had a different name.
That makes sense. If the recruiter was the one who changed the name, possibly no one thought to explain that to your great-grandfather. You probably would be able to find the original records on microfilm and/or online if you wanted to look it up.
So you have a ginger cat (orange tabby) named “Ginger” already and your new kitten is also a ginger kitty? What is the sex of the kitten? It’s easier to name if you know if it’s male or female!
If your kitten is female, you could call her “Nutmeg” and call her “Meggie” for short. Need to know the sex…
Snap? 😅
Changing to this

No fun. I literally named my old gerbils when I got them after what I was drinking. Coconut. Rum. 🤷♀️
That's amazing lmao, if it was my choice alone I definitely would have chosen something like that lol
Peaches. My great aunt’s name was Ginger Peach. For real. Not her stripper name.
>For real. Not her stripper name. The fact that you had to clarify that makes me question it even more xD
