One of DH's older cousins is expecting a granddaughter. Wait for it, wait for it...

Her name will be A.va.rhee.

It definitely took me a minute to realize it was unique spelling for Avery. Why, just why?

Oh man. And this spelling thing is spilling over onto traditionally written names too. I was asked in the hospital to spell "Henry" for them. I told them it was just the normal way and she looked relieved and said "Oh great! But we just have to check because there are so many different spellings now. " Tha heck?

Well, Henry could also be spelled Henri and be normal.

Oh yes, totally. Like Alec and Alex. It was just the "so many different spellings now" that threw me. Certainly there are longstanding alternative spellings for some names based on country of origin, but I got the impression from the nurse that she'd seen more than the usual with an i or a y :-)

"Normal" was probably the wrong way to state that. My bad.

I was at the store today and the lady in front of me kept calling her kid Broden, I can honestly say I haven't heard that one before.

There is a woman who keeps popping up in my FB feeds through buy/sell groups with the name jazzmyne.
