Jami Plays the Name Game
So here's the deal, folks - we know this baby is going to be a boy and we're tossing around some names. However, we will not be sharing the name with anyone until Gurgle (as Eddie has named him) makes his appearance in this world, probably around the end of September. It's nothing personal, it's just that we don't want everyone's opinion of the name we pick. We have some friends and/or relatives for whom tact is a foreign concept, and since we can't tell some of you and not all of you, well, you all suffer. So sorry. This way, by the time you hear it, even if you hate it more than any name ever created in the history of man, it's just too late.
BUT - if you have naming suggestions, we will be totally happy to consider them. Post them here, email me, tell us in person, whatever. I promise you we will at least say it once out loud before rejecting it and mocking your complete lack of taste in names.
Since all of us currently have 4 name-names, we will be giving this little sprout two middle names of his own, giving you one extra chance to get your suggestion in there.
Of course, my laptop also is nameless, so if you prefer to stick with naming the basically inanimate, we'll be accepting suggestions there, too.

For the laptop, I suggest Gofunk. Don't know why, it just came to me. Or you could just see what you get with Blogger Word Verification words.
As far as your baby... Roberto. Again, no reason why. Or even use the Word Verification thing for him, too.
BTW, hello from Scotland!

Hmm. Eddie and ...
Well, I love Nick. Nicholas, Nicky. I'm partial to that name. :-) And I adore Luke. Then Chas could say "Luke, I am your father." BTW, this is why Nick will never name a child Luke. :-)

Jim, I'll give it thought. The idea of naming my anglo baby Roberto when my hispanic baby is Edward does appeal to me, but the only Robertos I know are the insane robot in Futurama and the talking fruit bat in the Christopher Moore books, so I'm not sure I can do that.
Hi, to Scotland - does that mean you're missing the Cup Series?
