so the boy and i were at his sisters house last night and were talking about babies, hopefully coming soon.

sister LOVES francesca, as do i. boy HATES it... "it sounds like a soda" he says. boo. hiss.

we both love ruby, its our number one. sister put on a brave face but i could tell is lukewarm about it.

i started talking about how i need to use a name that has a great nickname because i nickname everyone. so i started rambling off the names i have on my list that have the built in nicknames and got to "josephine would be josie..." and the boy perked up. he LOVES josie and would deal with josephine since she would probably rarely be called that, just the full name formality, which i do not always deem necessary, but in this case, i dont think josie is a wise choice as a full name.

what do you guys think of josephine? josefine? sister pushed the idea of just using josie, she seemed to think it was fine. for reference her daughter is named zoe, which i also adore, but alas, it is already used.

anyway, it doesnt make much difference what sister has to say, but i am just rambling on because i am bored at home waiting for the boy to get home from work.

middle name will be colleen, after my mother who passed away almost 5 years ago. i am aware that it rhymes, but it is a non-negotiable. in general, how do you think it sounds?

josephine colleen?
josefine colleen?
josie colleen?

I was toying with Josephine as a middle name to honor my late grandfather (Joseph) but I kept thinking "mean, mean Josephine...she takes her bath in gasoline, her eyes are red- her hair is green..." you get the picture
I guess I'm not mature enough to use the name
