In general, the 5th son or daughter was named after the parents themselves, the cousins only came back into the picture afterwards.
The naming after both grandparents was maintained, but there are also cases where the first son born was not named after the Father's father or Father-in-law, then there was a disagreement in the family atmosphere, even if the father of the firstborn son had the same name of his father or father-in-law, then that name was not chosen, that could also occur on the family side of the mother. |
