So that's the Aidan part. As far as the Lane part goes, how about Lane Frost? He was a famous bull-rider. Be sure to read a little about him. You'll be glad Aidan's middle name is Lane.IStandAmazedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03272546905601146667noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13480540.post-1139609218606512312006-02-10T16:06:00.000-06:002006-02-10T16:06:00.000-06:00meant to add-trendy, schmendy!

My first, Hayley, was no problem, but a bit trendy. #2 I wanted something that went well with big sisters name. I kept coming back to Emily. Yes it has been #1 for about a zillion years, but we liked it. The bonus...I had NEVER had one in class. The ONE that we knew was a dear college friend that we adored. Know what? We have yet to cross paths with another Em her age. Check back with me in a few months, that's when we start preschool;) <BR/>I love that his name means fire. It describes his passion for life. Can't imagine what Ian means:)Cyndyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01347642102116223521noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13480540.post-1139535711839158492006-02-09T19:41:00.000-06:002006-02-09T19:41:00.000-06:00If it makes you feel any better your Aidan is the ...If it makes you feel any better your Aidan is the first one I knew and the one I always think about when I hear that name. :D<BR/>~Heidiagent713https://www.blogger.com/profile/00616779546642325238noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13480540.post-1139498105726098682006-02-09T09:15:00.000-06:002006-02-09T09:15:00.000-06:00Yea.

And we picked "Emma" years before she was actually born and is, technically I suppose, named after her great grandmother.<BR/><BR/>But there are a zillion Kaitlyns (of a variety of spellings) and Emmas out there now.<BR/><BR/>Although I was one of three Nancys in elementary school, I have gone most of my life being the only Nancy I know. Now, they are just coming out of the woodwork....<BR/><BR/>Funny thing names....<BR/><BR/>And I MUST remember to get Ayden the album I made for him when he was born to him by next Tuesday... his 2nd birthday!Nancy D.https://www.blogger.com/profile/17809635542523432421noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13480540.post-1139495151854347742006-02-09T08:25:00.000-06:002006-02-09T08:25:00.000-06:00Folks will always try to find some association wit...Folks will always try to find some association with a name! Growing up I was asked if I was married to George. And well, we all know about that East Coast Martha that is known for doing all things to perfection, including stock trading. But, then there are good things too...like having the same name as a Californian named Martha!<BR/>Or having a princess in Norway named after you (honest, I'm older than her, so technically she was named AFTER me, right?)<BR/>Martha C.Marthahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15504252339539190830noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13480540.post-1139495006446739382006-02-09T08:23:00.000-06:002006-02-09T08:23:00.000-06:00Lane IS a good name to have!

That and DH's uncle has 8 kids...seven are boys! A lot of good boy names were used up!<BR/><BR/>Travis wasn't widely used back in 1995...or so I thought. When he went to pre-k, there were three of them in the class. A school with only 400 kids for grades k-6.<BR/><BR/>Had he been a girl, his name would have been Madison Rae. Weren't many Madison's back then either, but I see they're popping up too!Martha in CAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02095181489933460439noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13480540.post-1139492432740830152006-02-09T07:40:00.000-06:002006-02-09T07:40:00.000-06:00Like Veronica, I'm still amazed that you named thr...Like Veronica, I'm still amazed that you named three kids using only 4 letters of the alphabet!<BR/><BR/>Now that I've been watching the (somewhat) sanitized version of SATC shown on the WB, I have to agree with Sherilyn about John Corbett's character. Still, I feel your pain. It's not like we thought Rachel was an unusual name, but several people said "Oh, did you name her after Rachel on Friends?"

Thankfully ours is the ONLY one I know of nicknamed the good ol' classic Amy. <BR/><BR/>Now. As to her middle name? Lane.

It was not a common name at the time (or so they thought) - now that Jared is nearly 20 - there are so many 20-something Jareds around it's not funny. So apparently it was trendy.Veronicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01257876178567979366noreply@blogger.com
