Beanie has a suggestion for what we should name the baby: Peccatoribus.
Me: “Um. Isn’t that Latin for ’sinners’?”
Bean: “Yup. But it’s got a nice ring to it, don’t you think?”

This reminds me of three-year-old Jane’s first choice for Rose’s name, some ten years ago:
“Bloomingdales Abednego Peterson.”
(We lived in New York City at the time, remember.)
We went with her second choice instead. You’re welcome, Rose.

Have fun, but take...
ROFL! That’s going to make me giggle every time I think of it.

You can’t say your children aren’t creative!
Posted on August 27th, 2008 at 9:12 amThat had me roaring with laughter. My “Princess Bride” loving children are currently favoring Inigo Montoya for a boy and Buttercup for a girl. A series of rainy days had them indoors watching movies and I’m living to regret it.

You do have to admit though Jane’s second choice was inspired.
Posted on August 27th, 2008 at 12:54 pmmy hubby’s far worse.. He threatened Tressiar and Tibirius several times!
Reminds me of my friend’s little boy wanting to name the cat Tractor.. they compromised with Digger
Posted on August 28th, 2008 at 5:10 amThat’s too funny! When I was pregnant with the twins, my then 2 year old daughter wanted to name them Moona and Goona. Which is no better than my father in law wanting to name them Sam and Adam (like the beer).
I’m pregnant with our 4th, and the boys think we should name the baby Toad, after the little toadstool guys on Super Mario brothers. They decided that even if I don’t name the baby Toad, they’ll still call it that. Poor kid.

My eldest wanted to names her sister “Chocolate Chip Cookie” - then Hope Cookie. We settled on something completely different, but still call her Cookie ’cause she’s so sweet
