How do you give names to your babies
Like I just announced on my previous post, we just had our new baby. Like Maria Arwen Sofia, she also has three names on her first name, Laura Eowyn Ysabel.
Maria Arwen Sofia has her nickname as the reverse of her initials, SAM. But this time, we’ll call Laura Eowyn Ysabel as LEY. We have actually planned to use the reverse as well but it will just sound not too good as “yell”. We think that it might confuse her when she starts to learn following instructions. What if we say “Yel. Yel.”, then she might yell at us. Just kidding. And besides, Lei or Ley has been Leah’s nickname for her friends. But all her relatives call he ‘Honey’. Why? She’s just sooooo sweet.
You might ask where did we get the name. Well, we just thought of them. Only Eowyn has an explanation so far. Like Arwen, she’s also a character in the famous Lord of the Rings novel. The other 2 names, we just found them cute.
Ley is just 4 days old but many have commented that she’s gonna have a hard time to write her name on test papers when she go to school. But I heard that schools now allow nicknames on test papers except on National exams and Entrace exams. I’m not sure about it though.

My 3 kids have the combination of my and my wife’s name.
Looks like you are fan of Lord of the Rings novel. Kitang kita sa ngalan ng iyong mga prinsesita. Majority of the sceneries in the novel movie trilogy was shot in the vicinities of my location and its neighboring environs. Hope someday you and your princess can come here and visit their enchanting kingdom of middle earth.

Wow. Nice names. If by chance we’ll have a boy, shall we name him after Frodo? lol. I think Golum might do.
