You're naming me WHAT?!?



I call Deuce, Deuce-Y because I have no idea what I'm having. However once I find out, I am going to start calling him/her by their name. So I've been brainstorming names.

A child's name is very important to me. I thought long and hard before I named my son. His name by the way is Jalen. Jalen means one who comes from James. His paternal deceased grandfather's name is James and his father's name use to be James. Get it...One who comes from James?!?!? Not only did Jalen have a great meaning but it was also unique(or so I thought) and it wasn't something difficult. His middle name began with a K in honor of me and my father.

So with Deuce I wanted the same. I wanted his/her name to have a special meaning and I also wanted it to be unique and fairly simple. I must've gone through a thousand names. I spoke each one to my belly and waited for something to "spark". Finally it did.

So if Deuce is a girl her name will be Paige! I love the name. I think it's beautiful and it means the youngest which is what  Deuce will be. Today while talking to my son I learned that Jalen consists of 5 letters and so does Paige! Neato! So if it's a girl the name is Paige MacKenzee.

If Deuce is a boy, it was a little more complicated. I loved three names; Chandler, Tristan and Ethan. I spoke each three over and over again until Tristan won. So if Deuce is a boy his name will be Tristan Khalil.
