I’m not sure the person answering the question is really a nun, of course, but whomever they are, they are obviously very well versed in Catholic and theological history, judging by their other posts – but who knows these days :/

Regardless, here is that link (the next more recent post is interesting as well)

Also note that the nun refused to allow the person asking the question’s son to name him “Michael” and didn’t explain why. Funny, people’s little personal beliefs on that one.

As for the similar names, I suppose that’s true – although my daughter’s name means “heir of Cionnaith” or “Kenneth”, I believe. Another similarity of note, however, is that the Appalachian mountain people of Eastern Kentucky in particular have retained the old-school Irish, Scottish, Welsh and Old English traditions and superstitions perhaps more than anywhere else in America – and both strangers I met during that time were prone to these in their own way (with the latter being oddly correct about my having a daughter (but I guess she did have a 50% change

I’ll be back to comment on your day yesterday a bit later, sounds frustrating but the gardens you saw are gorgeous!!!

Thank you for your personal story If you think about it the boy and girl names from those strangers are quite similar

In fact, true story, while pregnant, I was advised by a well-meaning complete stranger (as strangers so often do, when you’re pregnant) from Eastern Kentucky (and therefore full of superstitions) that if I had a son, not to name him “Michael” after the angry angel because it will P him off and your son will be angry in temperament. Lucky for me I had a daughter and named her after another complete stranger from Scotland “predicted” I would have a daughter and that I should name her the Scottish surname I’d already picked for a girl of Scottish heritage:)

Otherwise, I’m very curious as to why Michael is a saint, considering he supposedly never existed in human form and supposedly then had no free will – but then I’m a Southern Baptist converted to “high church” Episcopalian, and thus am still learning these things
