I know that the name of HB was inspired by WeddingBee, but I was just wondering why "bee"?

@Katrocap: Mrs. Bee's real name is Bee!
She talks a bit about her name here: "When I first decided to turn my personal wedding blog into a standalone site, I honestly didn’t think that I’d build an entire brand around my first name. I guess I should thank my dad because my first name came to him in a dream. My name is actually Korean, and my dad wasn’t thinking about a buzzing honey-producing insect when he named me. The Chinese characters of my name do mean “benign queen” though — yet another accidental bee reference!"

Hellobee was actually going to be the name of a potential personal blog for Bee... it was only later that we realized we could use it for a parenting website instead!

Awesome. I didn't know the origin story/name creation of the sites before. You guys got married the same year as my brother only a few months before.

I love the name Bee. My DH starting calling me that while we were dating (short for Baby). I call him honey and he calls me bee.
