That's how weird I am. Anyway, I think it's a really cool name, and totally unique!

Love having special meaning to a name :)...Awesome! Love having special meaning to a name :) Honestly I picked Ethan Avery because I liked how it sounded... then all these Ethan's came out from everywhere and it's a really popular name! I don't picture anyone else suiting it as well as my Ethan does :) Gabriel William was because he was a Christmas baby and also it being Irish my husband liked, his middle name is a family name. Kieran Patrick because I just loved it, Kieran means little dark one which I thought he would be but he's super blue eyed and bright... maybe it's his personality lol and Patrick I really loved but refused to name as his first name because I can't stand the shortening of calling someone PAT.. just NO.ann.мariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07340657010058906440noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7542153512214952651.post-22946831631945223882013-08-05T14:06:51.790-04:002013-08-05T14:06:51.790-04:00Well, it's not Venola (bahahahaha), but I thin...Well, it's not Venola (bahahahaha), but I think we'll keep her!
