I haven't been here in a while because our adoption went through.  So now I have a one month old and his name is Henry Xavier.  

But I wanted to pop in to share an article with you that my cousin-in-law posted on Facebook.  I wish we could slip it to some of the people who do the weird spellings so they could see the research on what that can do to their kids.

Congrats on your son! That's amazing.

As for the article, I think one sentence is key there:

"So it ends up building on itself. The type of parent who would give a really unusual name is often going to parent differently from a parent who says 'I want to give my child a name so they fit in.'"

I think that is way more crucial than the name itself.
