uuummmm....no!

We are in the midst of baby names for this little bun in the oven. (Don't you love all the puns that come with being prego? Well there are a ton of them if you didn't know.) Anyways Cameron is always coming up with names that "just come to him" during the day. He came up with Cannon and I came up with Gracelyn but we shot down dozens of names to get to those two. Now it is getting even harder because I don't want a popular name but I don't like weird or too freaky. You all know what I am talking about. I don't want to actually give examples encase you happen to have one of these name-challenged-children in your family. But I like to draw the line somewhere between unique and off the wall. Last night I was on the Social Security website and they have a list of the top 1000 names of 2005. You would be amazed at what people come up with. Some fun examples that I couldn't even really pronounce were~
Boys: Jaheim, Isai, Enzo
Girls: Motserrat, Aiyana, Deja
Yep they were all on the list!!!
In my teaching experience I have had several kiddos named Jason, Cody, Katie, Sydney, I had 3 Matthews in one year even. All perfect and great names but very popular. But after looking at the list last night I have to say I have never had the names that came at the end of the list, Blaise (Blaze I think) and Maryjane.

You think we would take some advice from our friends Harvin and D'Sha'~No name discussions until you know the sex of the baby. That eliminates 50% of the choices. Good thinking. We hope to find out on the 13th of October.

So in response to Cameron's names that are questionable.
Uuuuummmm....no!
