Oh, I thought you meant the opposite. In my experience with British
friends -- and British friends of my sister -- naming children
honorarily is even more prevalent in Great Britain than in America. In
America, we have far more "creative" names (either via spelling or
uniqueness), while in Great Britain, traditional names are more
common. Even my nephew's wife, a native New Zealander, insisted on
naming one of their children after her mother. I think it's a
widespread thing.
