    That made me sit up and pay more attention: I didn't know that farfar

    grandfather: morfar is the other sort. And then you have farmor and
    mormor and farfarfar and so on. It's a bit of a mouthful until you
    work out what's going on here after which it all makes sense.

    I was especially interested because I know a Farfar. But since he is a >>>> two-year-old child I don't think he can be anybody's grandfather yet.
    I'll have to find out how he came by the name.

    Parents were avid Dickens fans?
