So Code and I have names that we like for both a boy and a girl already, but the other night we thought we should have back ups in case we change our minds etc. I should have known that it wasn't going to turn into a true brain storming session since we were already in bed and drifting off. Cody started with Everest-I wasn't sure about that one and suggested Everett (sp?) then he said we should name our kids after mountains like K2. The conversation took a particularly silly turn when he suggested kilamanjaro. How could you go wrong with a name like that? the nick names would be great- kil.....kil-a-man. perfect. We never regained a serious tone after that one, but if we're particularly feeling cruel or the labor is awful we have a list of ways to get back at the unborn now:
Shustaker
Philemon Waddily winks Willow Ambrosia
So we might be in trouble if we have more than one boy or girl, but for now we're good...at least we had a good giggle fest. Cody woke up later while I was still tinkering online, giggled, and said: "binkie" I naturally responded huh? " ya know, like a baby's name" So we had so much fun he apparently kept it going in his sleep. :)
Remember when your dad used to say, "If you don't know the answer to a question on a test just write in Katmandu"? Well it's also the perfect answer when you can't think of what to name your baby. Katmandu Nolden ...kind of has a ring to it. If it's a girl the nick name would be Kat, and for a boy it would by Manny. No need to thank me. Your welcome!
ReplyDeleteThat's funny....Dan and I were woken up at 2am this morning by a shrieking drunk woman in the street and couldn't get back to sleep until 4:30. In the meantime we talked about baby names, too! And after awhile we run out of good ideas and inevitably we start saying things like unto the above listed. I even thought of Willow last night....oh my, our poor children.
