Recently, I was in the grocery store and noticed the name badge on the cashier. This name was extremely long {about as long as our alphabet} and unique. I had never seen or heard the name before.
“How do you pronounce your name?”
The cashier pronounced his name and it was beautiful.
“Where is it from?”
The Aztecs.
I don’t know what I expected, but that wasn’t it.
That answer opened up a short discussion about his name, heritage and the Aztecs. This opened up many genealogy facts.
We never know where we might find a great conversation starter to genealogy.
Where do you find a conversation starter?
