(Imagine having this conversation with someone: "I'd > like to name the kid after my ex-husband.") Perhaps she hasn't told anyone the child is not Vlad's and she didn't want to be caught out by naming him, say - Fred. It could also be a cunning plan to take over the Duchy (? or whatever parcel of land Vlad was granted) from Noish-pa by virtue of assumed heredity. I'm not sure I buy the theory of the child not being Vlad's - I just figured it was a possibility that could be thrown into the mix. M Michele Riccio mr1 at rcosta.com
