1 mom liked this

I picked names that were no family names and none with nicknames.  Names that were traditional, not trendy.  Names that flowed with our last name and names that the initials didn't spell anything. 

Caroline Elizabeth

Maria Christine

I chose their first names because I liked them and they flowed with our last name.   Their middle names are  family names.

I promised my family that I would not name them or post pics on any public site.  Sometimes it is really hard.....like now. :(

All first and middle names are either last names or first names from my side because their last name is from my husband ,their dad.

My daughter's first name (Shayna) was chosen to honor her paternal grandmother, the middle name (Claire)and Hebrew name (Chavah) to honor her grandfather's dad. The names meanings: "beautiful clear life".

Our older son was named to honor is dad (Eli) and maternal great-grandmother (Asher) and means "highest happiness" or highest blessing".

Our youngest child's first name was solely because my husband is a huge X-men fan (Logan) and his middle/Hebrew name (Meir) was to honor his paternal great grandmother. The name means "from the moors (darkness); enlightenment.

My DD's middle name is Rose. I have always loved yellow roses and DH said we should give her the name Rose. Then he added if I always had a Rose than he would never need to buy me any. Haha. It is also my grandmothers name.
Our son is going to be Liam. He is very very Irish and DH wanted a strong Irish name. We also wanted him to feel like a strong part of our family (blood or not) DHs name is William and Liam is Irish for William. So he has a Jr.with out it being a true Jr.
