And His Name Is...

MamaJules84

My cousin and his wife found out today that their baby's a boy.  They announced his name is Collin Matthew.  I asked her what happened to Alexavier.  She said, "I want at least one of his names to be biblical and Matthew just fits".

They went with a much better option! I like it!

They made a very wise decision.  Sometimes certain names sound cool as words but aren't good choices for actual people.  They can always name a turtle or a hermit crab Alexavier. 

Don't you think a hermit crab would be antisocial enough without being named "Alexavier"

Woohoo! From Kamdyn Alexavier (iirc) to Collin Matthew! What an amazing transformation this child's name has gone through, and for the better!

HA!  I just choked on my water reading this.  And I thought my third graders had some interesting names for pets...

Awesome name.  I'm glad there are still good naming people out there.
