Cute story - my mom's naming suggestions
| Mon, 06-26-2006 - 1:51pm |
My mom phoned me up the other day all excited because she had thought up a "new" name that she thought was really great for a little girl (little does she know we're having a boy!). Anyway, she prefaced this with how this name had just come to her, like she'd invented it...The name? Addison! I didn't have the heart to tell her that she did not invent a new name...and that Addison is actually #107 on the SSA naming lists. Poor mom.
Even though I probably wouldn't consider the name personally I told her that I thought it was great and I would most definitely use it if we are having a girl. That ultrasound better be right!

My mom did the same thing- with Gracen & Larsen...And just knew she thought of them...
My grandmother did it with Austin, which probably WAS new as a name on a person, as opposed to a place, to her. She even said, "There are other place names that would work too, like Montgomery and Jackson." I acted surprised...
My m-i-l did it with Malone & Campbell for girls...And my dh said, "Soup, mmmm, mmm, good."
I didn't make any promises though.
