I had posted here a few times trying to work out a baby name, and ended up taking it in a completely different direction

Henning Louis joined big sister Adria Danielle

Congratulations! I've never heard Henning before, but I like it. And I LOVE Louis! Nice choice, he just *looks* like his name, so dashing!


Also, omg the tiny sailor shirt! Where did you get that? Cutest thing ever!

Aww, he's cute! Congrats!

I really like Henning (although Behind the Name has just informed me that I have always been pronouncing it incorrectly, apparently).

Lyle (but spelled lisle) was on our list! Your grandfather had a rad name. Was it a family name and/or a name that represented his heritage?

[ohhvelocitygirl.livejournal.com]

Thank you =]. I try to go for names that are names, but relatively unheard of names.

Thank you!

Thanks!

Thank you thank you! Louis was after my aunt who passed in January. Her middle name was Louise.
The shirt is an H&M shirt, but I got it at once upon a child.

Thank you!

Thanks =]

We went the Danish pronunciation, hen-ing. I've heard the German pronunciation is he-ning, but I've never heard a German pronounce it that way.
Adria is supposed to be ahhhhh-dria instead of a-dria, but for both kids I went with the pronunciations that made more sense in English.

Oh, okay, I have been saying it hen-ing. Behind the Name just lists he-ning, which I don't like quite as much. I'm glad to know there's actually more than one pronunciation. I really like it like hen-ing.
