Yea or Nay: Adelie
Anyone else spot this post at Swistle? The couple is looking for a name for baby #2, a little sister for Adelie, nicknamed Addie. It’s a name I’ve heard once or twice of late, and I’ve been wondering about Adelie. My favorite Adel- name is Adelaide, but it’s a huge category, from surname Addison to [...]

I doubt we’ll ever have a third child. There are dozens of practical reasons. And one reason that’s trivial for him, dead serious for me: we could never agree on a name. We do have a few candidates, scraps from the cutting room floor. I’ve mentioned them in comments from time to time, but I [...]

Sunday Summary: 11/22/09
First off, a Thanksgiving news alert: I don’t plan to post on Thursday, November 26 or Friday, November 27. I’m headed off to visit my in-laws in Detroit, and they have these crazy ideas about people sitting in the same room and enjoying each others’ company. :) It’s been a quiet week as the US [...]

Sunday Summary: 11/1/09
I hope everyone had a spooktacular October 31. My firstborn led the neighborhood kids in a chant of “Halloween! Halloween!” as they walked through the streets, accumulating an unreasonable amount of candy. They grow up so fast … But speaking of treats, our new neighbors have a son named Ellis and a daughter named Zora. [...]

I just can’t wait ’til Sunday! A few starbaby names popped up in the past few days: Molly Ringwald has welcomed twins Adele Georgiana and Roman Stylianos. They join big sis Mathilda Ereni at home. I’ve loved Molly since Pretty in Pink, and I like her naming style. And yet, may I just say – [...]

Name of the Day: Ada
Ava is an unstoppable Top Ten choice. Parents are rediscovering Ida, too. But if you find Ava too popular and Ida too retro, today’s choice might just be the perfect compromise.

Getting to Addie
If you know little girls between the ages of, say, birth and ten, chances are good that you know a Maddie or two. Her formal name might be Madeline or Madison, Madeleine or Madisyn. Her charming nickname is the inevitable result of any of a crop of super-popular Mad- variants, ranging from the classic and [...]
