Decided on a Name

We have decided a name for our new daughter. It was a gut-wrenching decision to make in such a short amount of time. After, this name sticks with a person all thier life. It has to be good.

Like many couples, we had dreamed of the names of our children. We had planned the names and memorized the names. However, when the time came to actually use the name...we balked. So Erin and I and her parents spent a couple of hours last night pondering names.

However, after all the switching and trying different combinations, we gave this name to our social worker today for the paper work...

Mahaela Hope

Mihaela (mah-hay-la) - Romanian and Slovene feminine form of the Hebrew name Miyka'el which meant "who is like God?".
