Geez - we must be related, Imp.

My grandparents' have the same name, too.

Mother's side: Ray & Ivy

Father's side: Ira & Florence. But my paternal grandpa died, and grandma remarried a fantistic guy by the name of Hollis, so I had a step-grandpa, too. He's the only one who's still alive.

RIP

Good question so I'm chiming in late!

Maternal side: Harriet and Angelo (both names I plan to give my kids as middle names; well Hattie for a girl.)

Paternal side: Jane and LeRoy


My Mom's Mom has a funny story to her name that she just told me recently. Her parent's came to America from Poland. Her birth name was Harriet, but for some reason they called her Agnes. So that's what everyone thought her name was, including her. Then one day when she was about 10 or so it came out that her real and official name was Harriet. She had to change it at everything from the library and her school and with all her friends even! She said the worst part was at the library when, to keep it simple, the librarian made a very loud and racist remark about her heritage and being an immigrants child.

But she got over it and went by Hattie after that.
