NAMING GAME

Is it weird we don't have a name picked out yet? I'm not sure we're even close. So y'all might as well put your 2 cents worth in. When I asked my friend, Adella, for her 2 cents she said "stop asking everyone for their 2 cents!" And she's right, the few names either of us absolutely loved someone close to us talked the other out of it. so I'm not asking your opinion on any of our choices but you might as well throw some names out there that maybe we haven't thought of yet.
I sort of want the name to MEAN something-so I thought Isaac as in Sarah and Abraham's son who God blessed them with in their old age and Sarah laughed saying "Are you kidding me, God, NOW? when we're so old?" But Steve didn't like that name one little bit. I also thought Marc Eli which are the letters to MIRACLE scrambled, but Steve didn't like Eli. Steve kind of wants something starting with a C ... kind of... but there was only one that I liked--Cody. We both want something somewhat unique but easy to spell. Like Edward (my grandfather) now there's a name you never hear, at least not out here in Ca. I've been teaching for 6-7 years now and only last year ran into a kindergardener named Edward. So I've already said too much...I'm sticking by Adella's advice and NOT asking your opinion on our choice but go ahead and send in those names!! We'll listen and then surprise you all (LOL) when we pick the name. Or Duncan...Devin...Declan...

That is very true, people do tend to ruin names for you. Everything about this baby has been a surprise, so keep it goin when you hit us with his name. No matter what, he'll be loved and cherrished! It's funny, I always get excited to find out what someone is having, a boy or a girl. But my reaction is always the same, happy either way. If they say girl, I say YAY! If they say boy, I say YAY! Alright mama, talk to you soon, rent some movies and sleep, cause you'll be up through the night soon enough. Peace~~~~~~~~~~

From my SIS in NY:

I can't figure out the blog. How about Quinn? Aiden? Topher? (He'd get teased...) Jeffrey? Carson?
The name will mean something when you stumble upon the right one. So, don't try too hard. Just keep coming up with ideas and when you hit upon a name you both like, it will mean the world.

Best,

From Dede at work:

How about Conner, Caleb, Conrad, Caden ,Chase, Cole, Carter or Christian? I am addressing your wish for a C name. I like Christian.

I have a whole list to bring you with several "C" names as you suggested. An "off the cuff" thought:
SAMSON
S = Steve
A = and
M = Marisa's
Son
Sam "Sneaker" LeFevre

Love the middle name Edward. I'm rather partial to it as it was my Dad's name and my oldest son's middle name. Strong name.

Happy name game. :)
