What's In A Name?
This thought has been bugging me for a while, and my husband and I discussed it after dinner yesterday eve, as we were watching the local Orlando news.
When new parents name a child, they will usually try to include in the child's name, a reference to a parent (i.e. I, II, III or Jr.), or will include the first name or middle name of the mother, father, or a grandparent, to honor or recognize that individual. Take a look at Caylee's name: "Cay" is for "Casey" the mom. "Lee" could be for "Lee" the uncle or "Lee" the dad. Could "Lee" the uncle also be "Lee" the dad ? I went back and looked at a posted photo of Lee (Casey's brother) holding Caylee right after she was born. To me, he did not have the look of a "proud uncle", but the look of being stunned. Also, this may be why no-one in Caley's family seems to know or want to admit who the actual father is. If George is actually Casey's step-father (which I still haven't seen that proven anywhere), but if he is, it would be possible that uncle Lee could be a step-brother. Alternatively, incest is not something that is unheard of. Taboo yes, unheard of, no.
Now I'm going back and trying to find that photo of Uncle Lee, so I can compare it to Caylee's photo to see if maybe there is a stronger resemblance than that of "just an uncle"....
