Carmen's been so fun lately that Mark and I are starting to look forward to future children. (Wait until at least February, Kamis! February! 2 1/2 years is a good gap!) A few nights ago, we were talking about baby names. We have 3 boy names we really like (Mace, Daniel, and Brad after my Dad) and one girl name we can agree on (Kimberly). I like Rebecca and Jennifer, but he's not sold on either of those names until we come up with acceptable middle names for them. =p
Anywho, I asked him what other girl names he likes. He paused for a minute, and said, "Enid."
Enid?!
Are you kidding me?!
I asked him where in the world he came up with that name, and he was all like, "Well, you see, there's this Barenaked Ladies song ..."
*facepalm*
(No offense to any Enids out there, or anyone who knows and loves an Enid. My great-grandma's name is Ethel and I love the name, even though it makes other people laugh.)
Please note that I did not say I like the song. I just happened to decide I like the name, based on hearing the song.
ReplyDeleteMy other favorite names (that Kamis may or may not like) are Fay and Brooke.
I find Fay an acceptable middle name because of your aunt. (I always want to add an "e" to the end because of Faye Valentine from the anime Cowboy Bebop.) I think "Brooke Dewey" is kind of hard to say. It has too many strong consonants together or something. BKD.
ReplyDeleteHaha sounds like our conversations. I like Adelaide but Jameson says no. You know, a good middle name for Rebecca is Ann ;)
ReplyDeleteI like that song...
ReplyDeleteAnd the name I like that Becky says no to is Olivia. Aww...
