Our Mascot
Name our Baby Contest
Okay, this is the "name our baby" contest. We've got a few names picked out, but nothing seems to really stick. We've waffled for 9 months now, and its getting really close, so maybe someone out there has a name they'd like to suggest. Ladies, I know alot of you like to keep favorite names secret, because many of you fear you'll start a trend before you have a baby of your own to name. But I'd still be curious to hear some fresh suggestions. Oh, by the way, its going to be a girl.
And just to save you some time New Kenzo - Forms and Fishtown will not be seriously considered as names.
Finally, I know I said its a contest, but the only prize will be the satisfaction of naming one of Fishtown's newest residents.

Let's see....I have five
Let's see....I have five daughters and three grandaughters.
Names: Erin, Dana, Kerri, Devon, Kelsey, Alaina, Julianna and Corrine..take your pick..I ran out of girls names a LONG time ago..pick a name that's NOT too prissy..they say that "power" names are one's that can be used for either a boy or girl (like Devon).
And let's not forget, Ada
And let's not forget Ada Lovelace, who was the world's first computer programmer.

Hehe! Ada was actually my
Hehe! Ada was actually my paternal grandmother's name. I always thought it was very sweet and feminine. Grease would definitely not be sweet . . .
AM wrote:I love the name
Yeah, I like Grace alot too. But my grandmother, who has taken it upon herself to point out every conceivable negative in every potential name, tells me that if you say Grace with my last name real fast, it starts to sound like Grease.
By the way AM, you must be listening to our conversations. You've suggested 3 of our top choices - Grace, Margaret (Maggie), and Ada. I know you want to win the competition, but should you really be restorting to wiretapping?
