We named our daughter after a woman in the Bible for her first name and then her second name was after my husband's grandmother who had passed away before I could meet her. I just liked the sound of her name. We named our son also after a man in the Bible that I truly admired.

It's interesting, and I don't know what happened but, after his birth, I wanted to change his name. As I held him for the first time I knew that his name needed to be changed. So we changed it.

Because I had called him the Biblical name while in utero, I would switch back and forth with him on occasion using both names. Any other stories out there?

Kind of boring I named my first daughter after my sister and my husband named my second daughter a name he liked and I liked it too. Of course my son was named after him (how it was done in those days). All the names start with C- so they were and still are - the three C's!

I told you it was boring. Good question. Sources: me .

Mostly named after family The short version is that my son is named after both of his grandfathers. My husband is a Jr. but I hate his middle name and wouldn't give it my child. Instead, we used by husband's/father-in-law's name as the middle name.

By combining the grandfathers, both sides of the family were honored and my husband and I were happy with the name. The longer version is that after my first ultrasound, the pictures looked like a baby teddy bear so we started calling the child "baby. " Somehow, when my husband said it (and this was before we knew for sure), the name always came out sounding like "Bobby".

We thought that it would be ok since we liked that name for a boy and there are girls around with that name. By the time I delilvered, we had 3 different boys names that we liked, but kept coming back to the baby/Bobby thing. Once we met him, we knew that Bobby (Robert) was the right name for him.

Planning and.... improvisation We had two names picked out for our first born. The doctors knew her gender, but since my wife didn't want to know, I didn't know, either. So, we were prepared, and fairly well before hand, too.

However, we did know the gender of our second-born before hand. And wouldn't you know it? We just could not settle on a name.

And so, when he was born, we still didn't know. But when I saw him, I knew. I decided to give him my middle name, which was also my Grandfather's name, and my wife's Grandfather's name.

This was odd, because I really don't like my middle name, but he looked so much like that name, that it leapt to mind when I saw him. My wife likes the name, and was happy to adopt it. So it goes.

So it goes.

This could take a while Our son David Eugene...well, we were in the midst of divorce...and I knew this boy would need to be strong...David & Goliath. Eugene was after my dad's middle name. Next daughter is Susan Marie...just a pretty name that we both liked.

It has a nice flow with her last name. Step kids... John Francis...already named when I met him at 5 years old...named after his dad Debra Jean...was 3 at the time and carried her mom's middle name Jean. Sandra Ann...also prenamed by her mom... Donald John...given his dad's name as his middle name... Todd Lawrence...named after his uncle Larry... And that's the whole clan...all 9 of them...not too exciting but we sure had a full house...his, hers, theirs and ours.

Used family names We used the first names of family members, mostly my husband's side, for the kids' middle names so we wouldn't have any hurt feelings and then chose our oldest son from a saint, our middle son from my grandfather's middle name and our daughter from a maiden aunt, long dead, in my husband's family. I never heard if anyone objected to our choice of names.

Please share with me how you celebrate your Christmas holidays and any particular traditions you and/or your family have.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
