Her name is Kurt. </p> <p>Over the course of the evening, Kurt developed into Kurtressa. So apparently now our daughter will be named Kurtressa. :silly: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/silliest-name-suggestion/page/2#post-1637551 Thu, 15 May 2014 16:57:01 +0000 Rocker2014 1637551@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Before we knew we were having a girl, my husband constantly suggested Nebuchadnezzar (Biblical king in the old testament). He always said he was joking, but I am very glad we're having a girl so that "joke" is off the table now! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/silliest-name-suggestion/page/2#post-1637527 Thu, 15 May 2014 16:47:39 +0000 prettylizy 1637527@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It wasn't a silly name (Meridith) but FIL only suggested it because it was the name of the woman who won a local marathon by accident. She signed up for the half, and missed her turn so ended up running and winning the full 26.2. It was her very first time ever running that far. Needless to say FIL is a marathoner :silly: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/silliest-name-suggestion/page/2#post-1637512 Thu, 15 May 2014 16:43:56 +0000 swurlygurl 1637512@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs.Someone: There are 63 Vanellopes?!?!?!
