Son!

My boyfriend and I are having a child in October. We decided to use a family name that we both agreed on.

If we were to have a girl she would be named Anna Catherine after our mothers. My mom passed away last August and it was very important for me to name our future little girl after her.

But, SURPRISE!, we found out at our 20 week u/s that we are having a boy. We settled on the name Frederik John after his great-grandfather and grandfather. I realize that is definitely not everyone's cup of tea but we enjoy it greatly.

Out of curiosity do you prefer the spelling Freddie or Freddy for a nickname? I'm a bit torn.

I actually really love the name! I like both nicknames but I think I'd go with Freddy, just because Freddie seems a bit feminine to me, with the 'ie' ending.
