You know how I'm always saying that I think the human gestation
period is 9 months because that's how long it takes the dads to get on
board with being serious about naming the baby? Well, it isn't any
different the third time around.
All through the first pregnancy Mr. W wanted to name the baby Moses. He's back on a Moses kick this time
too. Except this time he has decided it would be awesome to name him
Moses Tecumseh W_, you know since Wm. Tecumseh Sherman was the first
Buckeye to burn a couch to celebrate a victory.
I just finished reading Gore Vidal's Lincoln
last week which Mr. W had already read. We're getting all excited about
watching the movie and were talking about all the people and we got on
the topic of Salmon Portland Chase, who was the Sec. of the Treasury and
went on the be a Supreme Court Justice. We thought that was interesting
since he was from Ohio, but it is such an Oregon centric name now. I
was wondering if the name was pronounced like the fish (silent L) or
more like Salman Rushdie. Mr. W looked it up on some website which said it
was a variant of Solomon. So now he thinks that Salmon W_ would be
perfect for this baby. I'm not sure if he's joking or not. As a joke I
suggested Salmon Angus W_ and now he regrets that we aren't having twins
because they could be Salmon and Angus and he could nick name them Surf n
Turf. Lord, help me!
I often toss out girl names on our list when
referring to the baby to see how they sound. Mr. W corrected me and said,
"You mean little Salmon." And then his eyes lit up and he said, "You
mean Little Salmonella!" Sigh! So if he had his way this baby would be named for a fish or a bacteria. Perfect.
