Jaan is curious about his name.
“Why am I called Jaan?” he asks his father.
“You just are,” his father replies.
“But why?” the boy asks his mother.
“Because your father is called Jaan, and so is his father, and his father’s father,” his mother tries to explain.
“But why is everyone called Jaan? Aren't there any other names?” the boy is even more confused now.
Luckily, the family reunion is about to happen. Papa will be there too – being the oldest in the family, he’s sure to know the answer, Jaan is certain of that.
