My brother and his wife had a baby girl this morning. [name]Journey[/name] Laurencia joins big brother [name]Phenix[/name]. Laurencia ([name]Laurie[/name]) is my maternal grandmother’s name.
I love it!
I had [name]Journey[/name] on my list but I’m happy to give it up to my sweet little niece who suits it so well.
They chose that spelling because “it’s the phonetic spelling of [name]Phoenix[/name]”.
Phénix is the French spelling and our family has a French heritage. It’s easier to accept knowing that fact. I’m so glad they went with [name]Journey[/name] instead of [name]Journee[/name] or Jurney!
