7 mo. (only!) with Girl2

As a follow-up to yesterday’s post: What I DIDN’T Name My Children, I thought I’d give you a little list of what names would top the list if Hubster and I were to have another child. Which we won’t. (Hopefully). But anyway. Here you go:

NB – the list is heavily weighted towards girls’ names, and I think that’s because we so love the boy’s name that we picked out and never got to use that it would be a no-brainer. But really, we would have to be prepared for another girl, because hello: we’re batting two-for-two here. But it’s all moot anyway, since we’re not planning on another child. I know, shut up already, right?

I just sooooo love this name. It’s sweet, feminine, classic and NOT hard to spell, as evidently Girl2’s name is, despite the fact that I can name about 5 famous women with the same name, and there are islands and towns and a whole region in France with the same name.
