Maria Lock of the Hawkesbury region provides an example of the practice of settlers not recognising Aboriginal names and bestowing common English names upon Aboriginal people born after the arrival of British settlers. Common names for men are Tommy, Dicky and Harry, or in remote locations Myles (myall and wild). Female names include Kitty, Biddy, Tilly, Fanny, Molly, Peggy. This has enormous implications for familial identity, culture and family history.
