It reviews the development of medical care for the baby from ancient times, Naturally, it re- lates many superstitions and weird practices in various parts of the world, even today. NAMING THE BABY A few items here from the chapter on naming the baby. in some parts of the world, even today, some babies are given no name for several days or years. According to an ancient custom among some Eskimos, a relative or friend lays a hand on the pregnant mother's stom- ach announcing what the baby is to be called. The name cho- |sen serves for either sex. In some places children never receive permanent names, but are given different names at different stages. In ancient Rome, a boy baby usually re- ceived his.name on the ninth day, a girl baby on the eighth. In- the Middle Ages, babies were named for New Testament figures. After the Protesian: Re- volt, Old Testament names be- came popular. Over the years, some babies have been named to describe a circumstance connected with the birth. Names were given for the first thing the father saw or did following the child's birth, the place where they weré born or for their position in the family. Some parents, netably among the Puritans, named their babies for virtues or quali- ties they wanted them to pos- sess--Constance, Patience, Pru- dence. Occasionally parents used adjectives for names -- Faithful, Humble, Meek. In the Middle Ages, only about 24 Christian names were Book On Baby Care Includes History Of Given Names used for boys and another 24 for girls. Up to 1750, boys' mas, or William. Girls--Alice, Agnes, Elizabeth, Cicely, Joan, Marga- ret, or Matilda (or Maud). "Five names alone for almost 40 per cent of all the baby boys born in the 12th century, for 57 per cent of the boys born in the 13th century, ert, Henry, Richard, Tho in the 14th century." John, Thomas or William was given to more than half of the boys born in the 12th, 13th, and 14th century (presumably among Christian nations). THE OSHAWA TIMES, Monday, Jenuary 11, 1965 7 names usually were John, Rob- and for 64 per cent of those born|. jaunt Now! False' Teeth Fit Beautifully! i In modern England, John is still popular; but the threesome --John, Thomas and William-- have been broken up. Michael, Peter and David have been dis- placing Thomas and William. John is still popular in the United States and grew more so after John Fitzgerald Kennedy became president. HISTORY A FACTOR Rise and fall of aames have pralleled rise and fall of cul- tural history of a nation. Char- acters in literature have had their influence. The book also discusses nicknames. "Modern parents who are searching for names can pursue the hunt through long lists pro- vided in dictionaries and special books, and reference books." At the Brooklyn, N.Y., Public Li- brary, for example, there are 100 books with lists of almost 500,000 names. PARENTS' QUESTIONS Q. Now and then, some re- searchers report that children gain in vocabulary from view- ing TV programs. Isn't that an argument in favor of TV view- ing? A. It would be if: it were shown that the gain in vocabu- lary from viewing TV was greater than from reading or being read to from good books for an equal length of time--an average of 21 hours a week.
