It's a boy!

I’m a little late sharing things, but our little surprise turned out to be a BOY, and he is just awesome.

We named him [name_m]Denali[/name_m] Jackson.

It’s funny, because we’d tossed around the name [name_m]Denali[/name_m] a bit (we are a quite outdoorsy family, and do adore [name_f]Alaska[/name_f]), but it definitely wasn’t our number one name. However, when he was born it just fit him perfectly.

Jackson is a family name that is very significant to us emotionally. Although we [name_u]LOVE[/name_u] the name [name_m]Denali[/name_m], I do like that he has a common and meaningful name in the middle that he can fall back on if he grows up to be one of those kids who just doesn’t like going by something unusual.

Congrats! Enjoy your little guy!

Congratulations! :slight_smile: [name_m]Denali[/name_m] is a cool unique choice :slight_smile:

I love [name_m]Denali[/name_m]! Congrats yo your little guy!

Congratulations! What an interesting, unusual choice!

Congrats on your new little boy!

Care to share his middle name for the Birth Announcement blog?

So unique and beautiful! This name is a breath of fresh air to me! Congratulations on your new little boy.

After some initial hesitation, I added his middle name to the announcement. Thanks for the congratulations, everyone! He is so precious. :slight_smile:
