That kinda makes sense. Giving a name before knowing how the childs behaviour, temperament or similar is rather unintuitive. Also probably makes the loss a bit less hard if the child dies before it's at least a year old, which is probably the root cause for that costume.

It wasn't because of a hesitance to misname them. It was purely because of mortality rates. I appreciate your optimism, though. 🥹
