Name Game - Part 80

Well, there really haven't been 80 posts about baby names, but sometimes it seems like it.

There's another name to add to the list. This time it's Joseph's contribution. It's too late to add it to the poll which means I made need to do a semi-final round. (Especially since I recently discovered that some friends are naming their daughter Zoe.)

Joseph and I were talking when he changed the subject from dinosaurs or cars or fish or all three to Alice.

"Who's Alice," I asked, wracking my brain.

"The baby."

"What baby?"

"The baby in your tummy," he replied with all the disdain of a teenager answering a simple question.

"You think the baby in Mommy's tummy is named Alice?"

"She is," he insisted.

Alice...it's kind of sweet and simple and old-fashioned. Besides...

What if Joseph is sharing a psychic link with his little sister and she's trying to steer him towards her name? Warrents consideration.

From CSUB Staff: Go with the name Alice! Joey is having communication with his sister. How precious would it be that her brother got to name her. :-D

This happened to my friend Janet. Her daughter started calling the baby strawberry. Her husband is hispanic, so the baby's middle is fresa (strawberry in spanish). So in hind sight Alice is alot better than strawberry!
