Songs on the Blog and baby names/suggestions

We added two of our favorite songs that remind us of BGL to the blog. Ben's favorite is "Daughter" by Loudon Wainwright III - you might recognize the song from the movie Knocked Up. Mine is "Beautiful Life" by Fisher - it's the song from the commercials for Jon & Kate Plus 8 on TLC. Hope you like our choices.

Many people have asked about the name of BGL. Here it is, short and sweet -- we are not going to be sharing the name of BGL until she makes her grand arrival. Sorry to disappoint, but we did find out the sex to satisfy many of you (yes, including ourselves), so this name thing is going to be something that Ben and I can share just between us. I will, however, offer you a tidbit....below is a list of suggestions from our friend Lauren Motley (soon to be Lauren Johnson - it'll make sense when you get to the last name on the list). She cracks me up. My favorite is Butterfly - it's kinda hippy-ish and we all know how much Ben loves Boulder, so it seems to fit. Enjoy! Oh, and if you have BGL name suggestions, respond to this post and we'll put them on the list. You might be lucky and have us choose a name you like.....we'll take first and middle name suggestions.

Names for Baby Lowe. One for each letter of the alphabet.

Aiesha
Butterfly
Chrystyna (a new twist on the ol’ Christina!)
De-lisha or De-nossis (couldn’t pick just one)
Ezola
Fajah
Germaine (yep, under girl names)
Hyacinth
Imelda (on the list)
Jack-ee (not to be confused with Jacquie, both on the list); Ja'Quaelah
K'Brianey (I just picked this one so you could try pronouncing it)
LeRinda, L'Tanga, or Larhonda (the L’s just sound too good with Lowe)
Monette (yep, also on the official list)
Skipped N’s – no good ones
Odessa
Precious
Queisha
Redonna (just shy of Madonna; a ready-made celebrity name)
Sharisha (rolls right off the tongue); Shamecca (Shamecca mecca high mecca highny ho)
Tye (not to be confused with Ty Bo)
Blows me away there were none for “U”
VeNay
Wygenia (hmmm, wonder how they came up with this one? The guy at the end of the table with a lisp….)
YoLanda (because you have to include this one)
Zelda (don’t use this one – it’s reserved for the future Zelda Johnson)

If you name your child Butterfly, I'm afraid I can't ever speak to you again.

OK, here are some of our suggestions:
Abigail (Abbey for short..super cute!)
Candace
Hayley
Nicole (works well as a middle name)
Noelle
Tegan

We also like Madison and Kaitlyn, but we reserve the right to use these names as well if we ever have another girl!:)
