Guess the Name!

As much as we love John Philippe, we've been trying out other name options, and there is one that we are liking very much at this point. But just telling you would be so booooring. Would you like to guess? Here are the clues:


Both names come from ancient (well, one is moderately ancient, at least) heroes. The first name is a shortened Irish derivation of the Norman conquerer of England. The second name is a Greek hero so famous that that is the only clue you need. The initials would be LU.

Have fun!

We've given up on the German name. Even the Germans agree-- for boys it is pretty slim pickins.

Liam Ulysses.

When can I claim my prize?

Sarah said...

Ha! You remember Liam from Christmas, right?

Your prize is that when we see each other (I hope!) at Christmas this year, Liam will spit up on you first. Enjoy!

Awww, that's the best gift anyone could ever ask for. I almost wish I could share it with everyone.

And I did remember it from Christmas, but I was thrown off a bit because I thought that name was being used by another child and therefore not an option. But I'm glad to see it back in the game!

Looking forward to seeing your parents on Saturday, Sarah. He does need to be born on a Sunday- like his father and uncles.
