why i named claire elisabeth.

Becca, I too love names. Nate and I were talking about possible names for theoretical second child. I'm not even sure we're ready to have a second child, but we like to talk names.
Here's a partial sampling from Nate's boy list:

Bruno
Gus
Fidel
Reginald

Just to reiterate: still not pregnant. Just talking names with The Dada. It's possible he thinks we're in the market for a new puppy.

If you name your theoretical-as-of-now-does-not-exist 2nd child Fidel, can I call him Gitmo as a nickmame? :)

Hi, these are my children, Bruno and Claire.

Hi, this is my son Gus, and my daughter Claire.

Hello, meet Fidel and Claire, my two beautiful children.

Hey there. This is Claire and her younger brother Reginald.

That's quite a selection. You wouldn't have to worry about any of the names being taken by anyone else. That's a plus, right?

So funny. Fidel very popular name in my country! Just ask me or Sergio we have quite a selection in the family.

Sergio's brothers
Gus
Gilbert
Leroy

His grandmother
Refugio-she went by Ruth, I would too!

My uncles:
Filiberto
Lazaro
Alfonso
several cousins named Fidel

My grandfather:
Segundino (Because he was the 2nd born)

Oh yeah, we have some names for you!

I was thinking puppy too! Maybe that would be a good start to #2.

The good news is, even though we're having a boy in March, we will not be taking any of those names from you. Wait, is that the good news or the bad news? :)

Another that I really do love and maybe Nate will too.....Milo. Love it. Milo and Claire. Sigh

Bruno is my nickname for one of my sisters!!!!! She's had it since we were kids. Here's how it started:

1)Her name is Becky.
2)I called her Becky Roo.
3)Changed it to Becky Roono. (Don't ask my why.)
4)Eventually it became Bruno.

Again, don't ask me why. I'm just weird.

Anyway. What I was thinking...maybe you might want to consider "Bruno" if your theoretical second child is either a boy OR a girl! ;)

I think we all need the inside story here.

please don't use reginald i have no idea how to say it. i tried to sound it out but it just didn't sound right!
I think fidel is my fave of the 4 simply b/c it is of hispanic origin!
