Preferential parental investment in daughters over sons

Female-biased parental investment is unusual but not unknown in human societies. Relevant explanatory models include Fisher's principle, the Trivers-Willard model, local mate and resource competition and enhancement, and economic rational actor models. Possible evidence of female-biased parental investment includes sex ratios, mortality rates, parents' stated preferences for offspring of one sex, and direct and indirect measurements of actual parental behavior. Possible examples of female-biased parental investment include the Mukogodo of Kenya, the Ifalukese of Micronesia, the Cheyenne of North America, the Herero of southern Africa, the Kanjar of south Asia, the Mundugumor of New Guinea, contemporary North America, and historical Germany, Portugal, and the United States.

A description of the traditional structure of Creek and Seminole formal names (appellations) and nicknames illuminates the forms and frequencies of names appearing on historical censuses since the seventeenth century. Personal names were permuted within the Mvskoke cultural system and were transformed into English names primarily by literation, translation and homophonization in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries.
