[1] "Daddy, you’re crying," say my sons. "No, boys, I’m man-crying. Very useful skill. " [2] A short walk from my house in Hampshire, on a hill overlooking the heathland, is a plaque marking the spot where Richard Pryce Jones deliberately crashed his Halifax bomber during the war.① He could have parachuted to safety, but that would have meant crashing into the village. The epitaph reads: "He died that others might live. " [3] It never fails to move me. Not to tears, you understand. That would be disrespectful. But I do usually manage a lump in the throat and that film of moisture over the eyes that men have in their emotional armoury.② Gordon Brown demonstrated the non-crying cry beautifully when he made his farewell speech on the steps of Number 10. That catch in the throat. The determination not to weep in public. At that moment, if at no other, he had nobility. [4] Not everyone can carry it off. I don’t think Paul Gascoigne ever quite got the hang of it, for example. But I like to think I have it down to an art. My technique honed from years of watching The Railway Children, Sleepless in Seattle and that scene in Dumbo when the mother elephant is locked away. "Daddy!" my sons will say, pointing the accusing finger. "You’re crying !" [5] "Me Over Dumbo Ha ha ha. No, boys, what I am doing is man-crying, a sort of non-crying cry. I’ll teach you it one day. Very useful. " [6] They are too young to appreciate the nuance yet, but when they are older I will explain that open sobbing is associated with being female, and so inappropriate for men. ③The Charlie Chaplin analogy might be useful here. He once said that the way to act drunk is to imagine yourself a drunk man trying to act sober. The same is true when a man learns the non-crying cry. To be convincing, you must look as if you are trying to avoid tears. [7] Men have to be careful what they cry at, because some subjects are more worthy of tears than others. Grief, obviously. But not self-pity. And rarely should a man cry in pain. And never at the death of a princess he didn’t know. Those are the rules. [8] I suspect my colleague Matt Pritchett might be with me on this. One of his cartoons showed a father next to a television tuned to the World Cup, explaining to his children that "at some point in the next few weeks, you are going to see me cry". ④ And the day after the last survivor of the Great Escape died, he did a cartoon showing a gravestone with a mound of tunnelled earth trailing away from it. I seemed to have something in my eye when I saw that, and I expect he had the same something in his eye when he drew it. According to the author, Paul Gascoigne______.

Ever since the Puritans named their babies Fly-Fornication, America has been a land of naming freedom and self-expression. While other governments impose restrictions—German parents have to choose a name that clearly indicates the gender of the child and is not a surname, and the French, among others, forbid names that might expose a child to mockery—in the United States, anything goes. In 1950, nearly 30 percent of all babies were given one of the top ten names, a proportion that’s now shrunk to less than 10 percent. Popular baby names today include locales like Brooklyn and London; surnames as given names that summon images of Waspy dynasties, such as Morgan and Whitney; and brand names of upscale products. A century ago, immigrants often changed their names as a first step toward assimilation, with Bridgets morphing into Bettys and Giovannis naming their sons plain John. Now parents are going back to their ethnic roots for inspiration. With assimilation no longer the issue, the classic Italian name Giovanni is close to being in the top 100 names for boys, and Gianna has already made it into the top 100 names for girls. Giving your child an ethnically distinct name can be a double-edged sword. "I grew up hating my name," says Orly Telisman, 35, named for her grandfather Orrin. But in college, she discovered an unexpected advantage Orly comes from the Hebrew word for light. "Explaining my name gave me a way to say, I’m Jewish, which culturally and spiritually means a lot to me," she says. "To appreciate my name, I had to grow into my own skin. " The search for a name that screams " I’m unique!" leads some parents to invent names or play with traditional spelling. Besides the classic Irish Aidan in the Social Security list of top 1,000 names, for example, there are also Aiden, Ayden, Aden, Adan, Aaden, Aydan, and Aedan. Sometimes bucking the latest trends means choosing something that others might see as decidedly out of style. Lee Krasny, 34, named her now-two, year-old daughter Dorothy, after the girl’s maternal great- grandmother. "We struggled for a long time with whether to name her Dorothy or just use the D and select a modern-sounding name, but it seemed most authentic to go straight up. " A downside of a "creative" name is that it may come with baggage, not all of it positive. "I always felt I was prejudged by my name," says Gestin Skaggs, 43, whose parents named her for a word they heard in a German love song. "I’ve either had to overcome some stereotype of a short, fat German man or live up to an expectation that I’m a really wild and creative thinker.② People ascribe all kinds of personality traits to me that I don’t have. " But that’s a small price to pay, say the teens with offbeat names we spoke with. "I’ve met a lot of people because of my name. They hear it and think it’s cool," says Calypso Gibaldi, 15, named by her ocean-loving father for Jacques Cousteau’s boat. "If my name was Jane, I’d be average like everyone else. \ It can be inferred that a child’s name reflects the parents’ ______.
