Names

Help! Alan keeps insisting that, if the baby is a girl, we name her Engelbertina. I told him if we do that, we might as well name her Engelbertina Hitmewithastick Christensen!

Um...think about when you're trying to teach her how to spell her name when she's three years old. That would be hard for ME to spell, or pronounce for that matter!!! And, you also have to think about the way a name sounds (first and middle together) when you are screaming it at the top of your lungs. You'll be doing that quite a bit, trust me. :) If you have too many syllables in one name you have to stop and take a breath mid-scream and that just negates the shock factor of the scream altogether. Now you know why my kids all have relatively simple names! LOL

If it's a boy I'm thinking Bardawulf or Ethelwulf would be fabulous! Strong names with great nickname potential.

Would the middle name be Hitmewithastick or Kickmyass?
