Week 24



Sean and I are struggling to come up with a name for BN. We have a handful of names that are contenders, but coming to a consensus on any one is harder than I thought it was going to be. I can't even make up my mind about which one I like best - my preference seems to change on a daily basis. I'm kind of commitment phobic - I often get buyer's remorse, it takes me forever to make a decision and once I do I start second guessing it - this drives Sean nuts, as I'm sure you can imagine. Settling on a name for our baby is a pretty permanent thing (though I suppose she could change her name if she really wanted to). If only the baby could name herself!

  1. hi there,
    I remember coming up with a name for our little one was hard too. It felt like such a responsibility and we wanted something we felt "right"... At the end I think it just came to us... and when we said the name, we knew it was right...

    so it will come to you:)

    just like any design process, it's the process of converging and diverging... then the moment to make decision arises.

    I'm certain your baby will have a beautiful name.

  2. Hi Wakako! Thanks for such a sweet comment - love the comparison to the design process - so true! After lots of struggle, there is often that moment where everything comes together (serendipity!). Hope the same will happen with our baby's name - glad to know that it did for your daughter...
