My sister in-law just had her first baby last night and we are all so excited. The poor girl was in labor for 28 hours, but he is here and both mom and baby are doing well. She named him Dax Byron (mn is dh's name). He is so cute. Also I got a new name idea at the hospital and was wondering what you guys think of Gibson?? Thanks, Angie

Congratulations to your sister-in-law and family on the new baby! This is the third time in 24 hours I've heard of a baby boy named Dax. Strange coincidence, or perhaps Dax is really on the rise?

I've been considering Gibson lately, too, but for some reason I'm not wild about Gib, which is what I'm sure people would call him. Gibson is nice, though -- on the one hand, it could seem like just another -son surname among so many, but on the other hand it's uncommon enough to still be interesting.

I'm not big on Dax...all I can think of is Star Trek: Deep Space Nine (yeah, I'm a geek,) but I like Gibson. It's a strong, masculine name with a lot of flexibility.

Hmm, Dax is nms personally. But I wanted to tell you I really like Gibson! It has a great retro vibe imo... it reminds me of the turn of the century, the age of the Gibson Girl. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gibson_girl
It sounds stately but at the same time really masculine/cool and updated. Gib is a neat nickname for any age. It also reminds me of Gilbert : )

Dax Byron is very cool. I like it.

Also, I really really love Gibson. Gib is adorable as a nn too. Great choice!
