My Irish family seemed to stick to this pattern...even some of them using the same first and second Christian names in my generation......so b****y confusing! |

Have given several of my ancestors nicknames so I can remember where they fit in. |

That was the problem I was having. Quite a few of mine had sons all born the same year & then all named the same thing. It drove me mad working out who was whos! |

I've got bits of my tree with up to half a dozen names the same, and with about 4 of them alive at the same time, working out who is who can be a real nightmare |

I came accross this a while ago & thought it might be useful for people like me who get frustrated by all their ancestors having the same names. |
