So growing up, I was part of the Girl Guides. Just like the Scouts we were always prepared. I don't just have plan A, there is also B, C and D lined up just in case. When Jonathan and I started trying again for another baby we started bouncing around names. Kinda late this time because by the time we started trying with Olivier we had his name practically picked out (it was either that or Jacob and the whole Jacob/Bella thing I just wasn't going to do thankyouverymuch). Well today we came up with our final girl choice for a name. Rosemarie Esme Jane. Yes I know, Esme is a Twilight name just like Jacob and Bella, but 1. Esme is one of my favorite characters, the way she loves her family is just amazing, not many people love that much, 2. It's a classic name that's not insanely common 3. it was the last name we decided on and it just brings the whole name together. How did we chose the other names? Well Jane is after Jonathan's grandmother, the English version of it, we went with French first name (and eventually a French second name as well) so we were doing an English middle name. Rosemarie is another name from a book series I love (although truth be told, I'm liking Twilight less than before, damn Kristen Stewart ruined Bella for me....although Taylor Lautner made me like Jacob lol). Vampire Academy's main heroine is named Rosemarie. Her personality, she is caring, strong, independent, stubborn and does what she has to to help her friends and the people she loves. The way she reacts, how she loves, and her passion is what makes me love her so much, and right away that's the kind of person I would want my daughter to be like.
I told Dylan the name today, I've already decided (and told Jonathan) that Dylan is going to be the godfather of the next baby. I trust him with my life, I would trust him with my child. I sent him a text telling him. The first person. I sat there biting my nails, hoping someone else, other than me and Jonathan, liked it as much as we did. I was nervous, it's got names that aren't necessarily popular now. Very classic and normal names. None are even in the top 300 names on the USA census. Rosemarie isn't even in the top 1000. Finally after what seemed like forever (which is only about 10-15 minutes) Dylan texts me back. He absolutely loves the name, Beautiful, is what he said. I told a couple of my girlfriends that I am close with and they seem to like it as well. Phew! I love the name and I want others to love it as well.
