Tough Talk: September 13, 2023

Tough Talk,

My sister-in-law and I are very close.  We both have children and she has asked if it would a problem if she named her son Marcus.  My first response was that it was okay, but my son is named Mark and people may confuse them.  I asked her to not name him this, but it’s the only one she and my brother agree on.  What do you think I should do? (Quantico, Wyoming)

Quticle,

You obviously did not grow up in a big Italian or Spanish family.  I think you’re being ridiculous for even worrying about something as stupid as that.  Get a grip and a life.
