aries2756–that doesn’t seem fair. Only the FIRST grandchild who is named after a grandparent should inherit items from that grandparent? I have 3 married children and they each have sons named after my father and another 3 named after my father-in-law so only my oldest grandchildren should get anything? All grandchildren should be treated equally.
I also agree that new parents should not be coerced into giving any specific names. A lot of times the daughter-in-law (or son-in-law) is assumed to be the one who doesn’t want to name the child after so and so. That is not always the case and either way the children should not feel obligated to do something that they don’t want to.
