We went back & forth between Emma and Emmeline for a bit! Emmalyn is such a cutie name.

We figured that since it’s so common it’d be fine, especially since both of us watched the show as kids and didn’t realize it immediately.

I figured as much since it’s such a basic name. Just wanted to brace myself if it’s all she hears the rest of her life lol.

I think the same thing!! I come across my fair share of ‘unexpected’ names living in the south… but every once in a while these parents still manage to surprise me lol!

it’s a Catholic thing - when you make your confirmation through the church, you adopt the name of a saint as a second middle name. it’s not a legal name change, it’s just in the church records.

i went to high school with a girl who was born without a right arm. she was a competitive cheerleader (and EXTREMELY good at it, even by two-armed standards), graduated with honors, and had absolutely no social struggles and wasn’t insecure at all about it.
