The name

There has been a lot of discussion at our house lately about a name for our new baby.  Josh and I haven't come close to making any kind of decision yet, but Ella has a short list that she came up with all on her own and that has been holding remarkably strong for weeks:  Kevin (her favorite), George, and Henry.  Tonight at dinner we had the following conversation:

Ella:  Mommy and Daddy, I will give you a deal.  You can either name the baby Kevin or let me name him.

Me:  If we let you name him, what will you name him?

Ella:  Kevin.

Hmm..... methinks this deal isn't a very good one unless we want to name the baby Kevin (which we don't, sorry, Ella).
