外公為什么會有一個女孩子的名字？

A Girl's Name

When our daughter was born, we named her Myles, after my belovedlate（已故的）father, despite family warning that the name was toomasculine（男性的）.

Years later, when I felt she was old enough to understand, I explained to Myles, Your name is very special. I named you after my own father because I loved him very much. I know he would be proud of you.

Myles thought carefully about this and then said, I know all that, Mom. But I don't understand why my grandfather had a girl's name.

女孩的名字

女兒出生時，我們給她取名叫邁爾斯，和我深愛的業(yè)已過世的父親同一個名字，不過家人提醒這個名字太男性化了。

幾年以后，我覺得邁爾斯已經(jīng)長大，能夠懂事了。我對她解釋說：你的名字很特別。我給你取了一個和我爸爸一樣的名字，因為我非常愛他。我相信他會為你而深感自豪的。

邁爾斯很仔細地想了一下，然后說道：這些我都懂，媽媽?？墒俏也恢劳夤珵槭裁磿幸粋€女孩子的名字。
