Washington Babies
Name Ideas
Now that the baby is real, the husband is caving on the name options so I have wiggle room to make suggestions for the middle name. Yippee!
What name would you suggest for Harpo __________ Leonard?
My current list of suggestions include: Christopher, Arvid, Octavian, and Harold. So I am all over the place but I tend to classic old school names. My sister suggested Marc so that people would know that Harpo was name after the Marx brothers and not Oprah. Teehee!

Re: Name Ideas
Christopher, Arvid and Harold are all family names. Arvid is a real name and has been in my family for many generations. I swear.
Hubby doesn't like Arvid, but I have a soft spot because of the family history.
I think the hubby will agree with you on Octavian because he is a huge Roman history buff. He tried for Julius, but I vetoed that one. I thought the second in the Caesar lineage might appeal to him. Maybe I should add Gaius to the list (Julius' first name). That way if the kid hated Harpo, he could go with Guy (also a family name on the hubby side). Hmmmm... I think I have another for the option list.
Glad you like Christopher because that was the winner. Double winner for me because that is my Dad's name.
When we had our name discussion he stopped me within 10 secs and said Christopher was high on his list so decision was made fast.
Of course that was followed with 10 minutes of me crying (happy tears).
