My Name is Alexander

My name (Alexander) was chosen because my great-grandfather (from my fathers family) was named Alexander. My middle name (James) was chosen because my grandfather (from my mothers side) was called James. Neither of these names have a particular meaning they are just the names of important people in my family. My last name is Campbell and that is my family name.
When I was born I wasn't part of any special rituals (naming ceremonies etc.)

    Thanks Alex. It is very common for people to be named after family members. Your family chose to link your mother's side and your father's side by picking a name from each.
