This week, I was all gung-ho about how much I loved the names Luisa and Liesl and how would I ever choose.  (Honestly, I would probably never name my children either name, but I've been in a very strange naming mood all week.)  Suddenly, I hit on the solution...  merge the names together!  Luisl.  It took me 3 days to realize it sounded like I was saying weasel (or rather, l'weasel).

Also in the birth announcements today:  Will Grayson, brother of Jack and Karen.  I guess they were Will and Grace fans.

Other birth annoucement names:
Julia Renée (brother Adrian, parents Shari and Fred)
Nathan Pieter & Xander Max (parents Julie and Eugene)
Liam Noah (parents Lindsay and Aaron)
Sophie Rebecca (Shlomit Rivkah) (sister Hannah, parents Bonnie and Sandy)
Liat Sara (brother Nathaniel, parents Robin and David) (I looked it up because I'd never seen it before... Li'at means "you are mine" in Hebrew)
Gabriella Levana (sister to Benny and Daniella, parents Talya and Effie)
Cole Meyer (sister Ariella, parents Anika and Mark)
Emily Sarah (sister Samantha, parents Jennifer and Mark)
Kenzie Brooke (brother Nate, sister Lexi, parents Marly and Chris)
Jordan Paul (parents Stephenie and Robert)
Jacob Samuel (sister Lexie, parents Sean and Melanie)
Marissa (sister Melania, parents Tony and Natalie)

Took me a minute to even click on the Will and Grace refrences in the other names because all I could think of was "Will Grayson, will grayson". http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Will_Grayson,_will_grayson

That's funny, I definitely thought of that too. Maybe the parents are nerdfighters?

I had never heard of this but now, I must read it.

Nerdfighters AND Will And Grace fans? I think I want to meet these people.

You made me laugh with the Luisl thing! :)

I thought I was being so clever...

L'weasel! That is hilarious. I love Liesl, though.

I thought I was being so clever haha! I think I like Liesl more that Luisa... but it's a tough call.

My name is Louisa and I've been called Weasel, both affectionately and not so much my entire life so that made me chuckle.

I love the name Liesel but that reminds me so much [and yet more-so than my own name] of The Sound of Music :p

I like it because when I was younger, I watched A Little Princess way too many times, and the main character was played by Liesel Matthews... so as a 10 year old I was obsessed.

I too got a giggle out of L'Weasel. As a little girl I was absolutely sure I would name my daughter Juniper from "The Juniper Game". I still love that book, but I didn't exactly love the idea of a nickname of Junie so that put the kibosh on things. Potential nicknames are the #1 killer of my name ideas lol.

I have never seen the name Liesel before (I haven't seen the Sound of Music) so I thought it was really neat!

I ADORE LIAT.

Even though I live in Montreal, where we have a strong Jewish population, I have never heard it before. I have really grown to love Hebrew names but would feel weird using them, since I am not Jewish in any way.

for some reason I'm having major trouble getting my tongue to pronounce "Melania"

[sparklymoon.livejournal.com]

I think it's just Meh-LA-nee-ah... It's Donald Trump's wife's name as well so I think that's where I got the pronunciation from. It apparently can also be pronounced Meh-la-NEE-ah
