As of this morning, after 41 votes, Jude is the top name game contender! You guys must be reading my mind cuz that's my current fav as well! Jacob is a close second only one vote away.(Hubs current fav)
-no this debate over the name of our newest son is not causing any marital strife-
.....none at all....ahem...... nope.....not at all.
Just to throw a monkey in the wrench.....a wrench in the monkey?....I dunno......last night we started kicking around
Joel.
But I can't seem to find a middle name that I like to go along with Joel.
Ahhh, the trials of adoption. :)

Hey Sonia...catching up on your blog!
ReplyDeleteLove it!!!!
Love your heart!!!
Love how God is working miracles for y'all!!!
Love the name Joel!!!!
:)
I kept my children's Chinese names as their middle names. Maybe that is a possibility? I like Joel, but love Jude or Judah. I always loved Charlton Heston as Judah Ben Hur.
ReplyDeleteI really like Joel, but Joey and Joel are going to sound A LOT alike, especially to a foreign speaker. I still like Jacob best, but its not my new boy to name.
ReplyDeleteI love Jude. My son, Jameson, was going to be a Jude up until the last minute! I still want a little boy named Jude!
ReplyDeleteHow about Joel Lee? Course that would translate into Jolie! Oh well..... Daddyo
ReplyDeleteJoel Benjamin
ReplyDeleteJude!
ReplyDeleteJude!
Jude!
Just trying to widen the margin a bit . . .
thought it might help to relieve some of the marital strife . . . you know-- if the margin were bigger.
Just sayin'!
Blessings~

Another J Mom here. I have a Jonah, Joel, Jackson and Jameson. :))) So I would pick Jonah or Joel but I'm obviously partial. ;)
ReplyDeleteBTW, we brought home our Joel and Jameson from China about 6 weeks ago … on the same trip.
Our boys are 11, 10, 8, and 5, and then our daughter will be 5 in the fall. Life is full and crazy!
I think I found your blog on Shannon's blog.
