The first born son is fre- quently called “'Ichiro,” which means “First.” Others, as in La- tin, are named “Second,” “Third” and so on.

Thus if a, g1rl is born soonvafter the death of a, bra- ther the latter’s name is given to her in the belief ma: his snirit and all his good qualities have been transferred to her. On the other hand, if a, boy is born after the death of a, sister he takes the lat- ter’s name and, as the Samoans be- lieve, all her lovable traits become his.
