My first child is a daughter named [name]Louisa[/name] [name]Elspeth[/name] [name]Virginia[/name]. [name]Louise[/name] is my hubbie’s favorite name. I prefer [name]Louise[/name] but we had a compromise that [name]Louisa[/name] could be her first name if [name]Virginia[/name] could be in the middle. [name]Elspeth[/name] is in honor of my grandmother, [name]Elizabeth[/name].
My second is [name]Malcolm[/name] [name]Alexander[/name] [name]Ian[/name]. [name]Both[/name] me and my husband love [name]Malcolm[/name]. [name]Alexander[/name] is after my husband, that is his first middle name, too. [name]Ian[/name] is a name we both like but not enough to use for a first name.
The third is [name]Linus[/name] [name]Clint[/name] [name]Samuel[/name]. [name]Linus[/name] is a name we considered for [name]Malcolm[/name], but then we realized it didn’t suite him. It suited this baby, though. [name]Clint[/name] is both the name of my dad and the name of my husband’s uncle, not to mention it’s a name both of us love very much! [name]Samuel[/name] is another name that we just both liked.
My fourth, [name]Fable[/name] [name]Annora[/name] [name]Valentine[/name], was rather tricky to name. I loved [name]Fable[/name], my husband didn’t. he wanted to name her [name]Nora[/name] [name]Valentine[/name]. I said [name]Nora[/name] was too old fashioned and [name]Valentine[/name] was cheesy. Slowly, though, [name]Valentine[/name] began to grow on me, and [name]Fable[/name] started growing on my husband. I said no [name]Nora[/name] but I could cope with [name]Annora[/name]. So our second daughter was named.
[name]August[/name] [name]Percival[/name] [name]Darcy[/name] is my fifth. He was born a year ago, so obviously he was named after his birth month. I picked out [name]Darcy[/name], because I love this name, and my husband picked out [name]Percival[/name], his first name. We call him [name]Percy[/name] [name]Jr[/name]. a lot of the time.
And that was how I named my kids! Now I have to go through the process again, my sixth child is on the way…
