Hi I just joined and thought I'd put my names
out there.

I'm having a little tyke, don't know the gender yet
(just entered my second trimester)
but as alot of people I'm hoping beyond reason for
a girl. But to put it in the best words:
I will be the most gracious for a healthy baby. ♥

The girl's name I am stuck with and won't change:
London Bren

The boy's name I haven't found one to stick with:

Paul- after my Uncle Paul who has recently passed

Alejandro (said Al-ah-hand-ro)- My boyfriend (baby's
daddy) likes this name, but I'm just throwing it out there.
I'm not to sure, because I wouldn't be able to yell that. ;)

That is about it. I know..not at all good chosing. I would
appreciate some input and ideas(if, of course, you don't mind
me stealing them)

The tough thing is these children are going to need to know
how to spell. Their last name is: Echternacht-Sunsera. Echternacht
being my boyfriend's last name, and Sunsera mine. I'm single
not at all close to being engaged, and I want my children
to have the best of both parents. ♥

I can tell you just me with my last name
it was hell in school. NO ONE could say it
properly.

It's just Sun like the big fiery ball in the
sky, and Sara like a little girl's name.
Sunsera

Echternacht..I'm not sure how my boyfriend
survived, OR HIS BROTHERS.

Its Ek ter nak t. Pretty easy..and hell of a spell.
When I'm spelling it for my future child, it's
the same amount of letters for Mickey Mouse.
(don't know if you know the song)

It looks straightforward to me, but then again I took German for 5 years so I'm familiar with words that look like that and how they should be pronounced lol. But...people in this world can be pretty special about pronunciation, lol. My ex-best friend's last name was Shuping, rhyming with looping. Looks like it would, right? But people would say Shupping (rhyming with cupping), shipping, shiping (rhyming w/ typing), shoe-ping (like two different words), etc. She got all kinds of shit.

Awesome! Taking German and my boyfriend's
last name is German.

Both names are very straight foward,
I admit it took me a few weeks to finally
pronounce my boyfriend's last name.
I work at a Call Center for Cingular Wireless
and I get alot of last names that I know
I would murder.

When I saw Shuping..I thought of it rhyming like
Looping. It has a U in it! ;)

People would pronounce my last name: Soonsera
or Soonseeray. eh.

Yeah, I thought Soon-sara when I first saw it. It just looks foreign or something and u's are generally pronounced like that in other languages (or maybe just western languages, I only took Spanish and German). Whoops. Ha.

But yeah the Shuping I never got...words require TWO of one letter to try to pronounce it like Shupping. But she got that allll the time. Hot.

Well my last name is Italian or Cicilian.
I admit..I can see Soonsera. Because of the U.
But SOONSEERAY! come on! ;)
