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.

GuessWho, based on your thoughtful suggestions I'm betting you have a great secret stash of names. Come on, how much do you want for those names? I need the good stuff!

Sorry GuessWho, I had to laugh at this. My name's actually Collin. I'm just imagining ten years from now when my daughter asks me how I chose gianna, and I have to explain to her that its the female derivation of my login on fishtown.us.

HA!! well, she'd might be the 1,000,000th registrant on FTU - something for her to aspire to...and c'mon...that's a great story!
you could name her Collina "little hills" or Collette (french variation of "small"). i like nicolette..and it opens the door to bunches of love names; nicky, nic, colette, letta, etc.

here's a link to the epidode script. it's a classic. He also suggested "soda" as a name for a friend's baby. lol

I always liked the idea of "Seven" ever since I was a little kid and their was a Peanuts strip where some kids had a number as a name.
The meme returned when an 80s sitcom had a character named "Six".
It was strongly reinforced by the introduction of "Seven" on Star Trek.
