What do you guys think of Wolverine for a boy? :) We both like X-Men, that's our excuse. Hopefully our someday-son will like it too. :D

Also, is it too weird to name a child after a dead pet? My cat was Rosalyn, which is a beautiful name... but she wasn't a relative or anything. :(

While I was pregnant we told everyone that we were naming our daughter Snakeley, after Snake Plissken. The reactions we got were outstanding! We actually named her Sophia. I hope you are doing something similar.

I made the mistake of using the name Delia on a pet that was killed. Now my husband won't let me consider it as a child's name. My SIL made the same mistake with Fiona....she said if she'd known she was ever going to have kids she'd never named the goat that, because my brother said he'd always tell the kid it was named after a dead goat. I don't think it's weird, but you might want to make your parents or siblings or whomever promise not to tease the child about being named after the cat.
