  • Quote: Babies! Now I know it's really spring. I like the name Faith too. Kids named "car" names creep me out. A wee girl came to register for a Fair event and told me her name was Portia. I started to write it an her mother corrected me with "It's Porsche like the car!" Duh! Silly me! Call me Focus or Elantra.
    And I suppose her sisters are Ferrari and Maserati.
  • No, her sisters' names are Mercedes and BMW. Seriously!! They live here.

    When my youngest was in grade school, there was a set of twins in her class named Porsche and Mercedes. Their mother told their father that he could name the next child too, but that he couldn't name her after a car this time. So, the smart@ss named her Bailey Marie and since their last name began with a "W", her initials are "BMW". Mom didn't notice until it was too late.
  • Is it April Fool's day already?
  • One reason why we weren't too excited (a feeling Angie and I and my ex and a whole bunch of other family members kept to ourselves) about my first GRANDdaughter being named KAIA....we thought it would be confused with KIA...

    When I asked my son says they thought about it but weren't too concerned...we will just explain it's a long I and a short a for KAIA not an e sounding i and a short a like Kia...

    We NOW love KAIA FAITH just as much as we love CLAIRE ELAINE....

    However when we told my mother in law her new great GRANDdaughter was Claire Elaine she said..."Finally! a real name!

    Now our family awaits the birth, in a few months, of Skyleigh....Jet's little sister....

    don't ask.....
  • Sometimes I think my family is a little crazy, But Faith is a real name.
    And Gary, I hate to tell you this but Kaia is going to have trouble with her name all her life. how to pronounce it , how to spell it.
  • No postings in the last couple of days ! Gary will be here threatening to shut us down if somebody doesn't post something.
  • OK,OK, I'm posting. It is still raining in Northern California, supposed to rain the rest of the week.
    Not complaining as we do need the water, last I heard we humans do need water to survive,
    PS , last 3 postings were from me.
