Ryan and I have spent only a few minutes talking about boy names. Just like when our first son was born, we don't agree on names. Ones he likes, I don't like. Names I like, he doesn't.
Got any good ideas for boy names? Keep in mind, our last name is long and not easy.
...as I sit here and type, Scott just got up from his nap and asked what I was typing. When I read the "got any good ideas" part, he informed me that he has a good one. I think his daddy is influencing him cause the name he suggested is the one his daddy likes. So much for being momma's boy!
Eli, Ben, Samual, Jacob, Lucas, Rowan, Logan, Max...I can go on and on. ;-)
ReplyDeleteHi there! Thanks for visiting my blog!
ReplyDeleteWhenever I hear PAPs asking about names I like to share a few articles I wish someone had shared with me in the beginning. While I certainly don't agree with all the content on this blog I DO feel her perspective is still worth considering. Since our kids can't speak for themselves anything that might broaden our understanding of the adoptee experience is helpful.

I thought, too, that I might share our naming journey as well. Nothing about naming our son was black and white- LOTS of gray:
