It’d make far more sense for the Jeong cousins to be connected by Jeong In’s MOTHER since otherwise In Jo…
Actually, in Chinese and most asian countries like Korea, they don’t name their children after their ancestor and/or grandparents cuz they don’t want to ruin the name of that grandparent regardless if they’re living or not. It might be true that some of these asians have fully assimilated in your country that they don’t follow that tradition. Anyway, we asians know what is tradition and why you a foreigner with a non-Asian blood teach us our tradition? We just simply correcting the false Western thinking about us. Even so, maybe the ones you socialize with are 2nd or 3rd generation immigrants that’s why they don’t know about it. BTW, in korea, they still have Korean names, they only adopt a Foreign name thru baptismal cert. It doesn’t mean that they changed their name but for international use, they use it. It is also true that in Korea, certain families follow a tradition where the second syllable indicates from what generation he was. Usually they follow the father’s generational naming conventions. The first syllable basically is after the birthdate or how auspicious the name should be if you’re born at that date and many considerations.
