After stressing about possibly naming a fifth son we ended up getting to name a second daughter. Ivalene [name_f]Patricia[/name_f] [name_f]Caroline[/name_f] “Iva”.

I admittedly made up her first name but it’s the perfect smoosh name to honor my great and great great grandmothers, [name_f]Iva[/name_f] and [name_f]Arlene[/name_f]. [name_f]Patricia[/name_f] and [name_f]Caroline[/name_f] honor my grandma and mother in law. I’ve been surprised how warm the reactions to her name have been.

[name_f]Iva[/name_f] joins older siblings [name_m]Connor[/name_m], [name_m]Emmett[/name_m], [name_m]Ernest[/name_m], [name_f]Wilhelmina[/name_f] “Willa” and [name_m]Caspar[/name_m].

Feeling so very blessed.

Big congrats! What a gem of a name - so many women honoured (and looking over her) in one!

Btw, is Ivalene a “lean” or “lenn” sound? Am assuming first but wanted to make sure. It’s so pretty either way! :cherry_blossom:
