Am I the only heathen who immediately goes to John Paul Jones & Led Zeppelin instead of the Pope?
FKA mimi4347: diaper rash magician and unofficial expert on excrement
This kid may not have a lot of bowel, but he has plenty of guts! DS born at 34 weeks with (surprise!) gastroschisis turned short bowel syndrome. 131 days in the NICU, 7 trips to the OR, G-button, daily TPN....
We are impatiently awaiting the day we can say goodbye to his girlfriend Ivy for good.
For me, that's a really good thing I know others would disagree, but it would be a name after JP2.
I have a nephew named John Paul (after the Pope as well), and I love it. Also, my nephew loves it. He is three. For Christmas, I sent him a really sweet children's book called "Lolek" - it's an illustrated story of the pope's life, focusing on his childhood. My nephew *loves it,* and is very proud of his namesake. If for any reason he didn't want to be associated with the Pope (don't anticipate that as his father also has this name and loves it as an adult), he can go by "John."

This. Charlie is darling and works great with your sibset, but I'm also a fan of family names.
