Introducing Riven James <3

On [name_f]April[/name_f] 18 my partner and I welcomed our first child, Riven [name_u]James[/name_u].

The whole ‘opposites attract’ describes me and my partner perfectly, as he is quite traditional and I am quite unusual. Therefore we knew we had to find a balance between these when naming our child. My partner chose [name_u]James[/name_u] as it is tradition in his family to give the first born son the middle name [name_u]James[/name_u] (we are now the 7th generation to do so). I needed something more unusual for the first name so I began my search with video games, as this is our favourite past time. I found the name Riven in one of my partners favourite games and we both instantly knew it was the one. <3

Congratulations! Riven is a really cool twist on the ever so popular name [name_u]River[/name_u] and I love [name_u]James[/name_u] its such a classic name.

[name_f]Welcome[/name_f] to the world Riven [name_u]James[/name_u]!:slight_smile:

What an interesting choice! Congratulations! [name_f]Welcome[/name_f], Riven [name_u]James[/name_u]. The best wishes!

I’ve never heard of Riven before, but I love [name_u]River[/name_u] so naturally I think it’s very handsome! Congratulations on your baby boy.

Riven and all the Myst games are my brother’s favorites. It makes a handsome name. Congratulations!
