I don't see what sounds bad about Grant Daniel?nbsp; I think it sounds fine.nbsp; I guess I would consider whether you think you will be sad if you never have another boy and don't get to name a boy after an important person in YOUR life.nbsp; That's sort of how we made our decision.
Very good point. And I agree with you all when it comes to namesake. I think it would be such an honor to have a child named after me so i can see how much it would mean to someone else. it's such a nice way to tell someone how important they are to you.
I guess I was just getting cold feet. People can be so harsh about names that sound funny... grant daniel when said with a southern twang is very silly. i feel like if you choose one that doesn't sound great, you're setting the kid up for a lifetime of... "Well, I was named after my uncle" excuses.
However, I appreciate your Grant Daniel support. How often will he really be called that anyway, right? And it's not as bad the more I hear it... Trying to erase the southern twang from my sound memory...
