MYSELF: Of course. I mean you’re not a mother, and you’re already making a list of names.
ME: True.
MYSELF: Which reminds me, have we come up with any new boy’s names? We’re really lacking in the middle name department, because I’m not sure Tad will go for “Christian Roald Luedeke.”
ME: Well, I was thinking lately how some last names make great middle names.
MYSELF: Like what?
ME: Steinbeck. Fitzgerald.
MYSELF: Those are dead author names.
ME: So?
MYSELF: It’s the same problem we’re facing with Roald.
ME: Well, we could use some of Tad’s people’s names, too.
MYSELF: You really want to have a little Schwarzenegger running around?
ME: I was thinking more of a little Bale.
MYSELF: So now we’ve got Christian Bale Luedeke as our primary name option.
ME: Yeah … I guess I didn’t think that one through …
MYSELF: You’re welcome.

well when and if the baby comes, its going to be a such a smart nerd genius...
ReplyDeleteLuke's middle name is McKinley. We were going to Mt. McKinley at the time and it sounded good. Sometimes these things just come to you, and the names you planned to use get thrown out the window. It's weird.
ReplyDeleteI got my baby name book out the other day to look for character names. Baby Name books are fun. Phone books also work good.
