🌱 let’s talk about baby s

hello friends :white_heart:

as some of you know, i have recently found out that i am pregnant. i’m about 5 weeks, and due in mid-may!

this little babe has already been communicating to my partner and i, through dreams, signs, etc. and we’re thinking their name is shiloh jude :sunflower:

obviously, with a long journey ahead of us, this is all subject to change- and we would like to meet them before we officially decide. i thought it would be fun, in the meantime, to talk our other choices with you all!

our style ranges anywhere from quirky vintage- think ernest, odie, and lenora- to hippie cottagecore- think wilder, shepherd, and prairie- to unique biblical- like canaan, othniel, and shiloh -but one thing that always ticks our checklist is a unique name fitting for a cowboy- or cowgirl!

i’d love to hear your suggestions, combination ideas, and thoughts on what we’re thinking so far- most of all, have fun! we’re not afraid of a showstopper name! :hiking_boot:

@daisydarcy i am loving this list- i can’t wait to show it to my partner!

he loves huxley, so zion huxley caught my eye right away. that is brilliant, and would make an adorable future sibling to shiloh, too!
