baby name thread

Don't non-reluctant bloggers post things called "threads" that are meant to just be the gateway for their readers' comments on a particular topic?

I thought so. Completely without M&M's permission, but in response to JLD's comments re: the-anagram-of-my-name baby name, I am posting this "baby name thread" for any and all suggestions. M&M can just indulge us and make us feel like we are involved in the naming of the baby, then put their original choice on the birth certificate :)

I'm going for Violet.

Doesn't Violet Joseph sound wonderful? So refined and sweet!

Or Clara. Which is so sweet, too.

those are my suggestions. :)

Melissa said...

Wow! You're all being so helpful... I was thinking that since Carolyn is insisting the name should be an anagram of her name, and Jonathan originally made it clear that his name would be available for the next generation, that we should name the baby after my three siblings. So, I've come up with Jocada - it would work for a boy or girl, right?
