    Our son will be named Alexandre Nicolas Lalonde :)

    Sasha's name was originally supposed to be Alexandre, but a cousin of his, born in the weeks before was given that name... so they chose Sasha instead. I'm pretty sure Sasha is Russian for Alex, so it works out. Nicolas is the name of Sasha's twin brother, and our baby's godfather.
    We decided since the very begininning that we didn't like hyphenated last names so our baby only carries his father's last name, all our children will.

    Unfortunately in Quebec, a woman cannot take her husband's last name when she gets married. The laws here are stupid :evil:

    Our little fella will be named William Todd Best. William is the name of his two Grandfathers. Todd is Trevor's middle name, and Best is Trevor's last name.. hee hee Trevor is happy... being the only son from his Mum and Dad, he will now have an 'heir' to carry on the 'Best" name!! LOL

    Wonderful news... Andrea... Paul's birthday is the 26th and Erin's is the 29th... William Todd Best will be a wonderful calm, reasonable, patient Taurus! Or on the other hand he could be as stubborn and unchanging as all get-out! :-)

    Mel and Andrea,

    I have an idea, please feel free to say no--you won't hurt our feelings, OK??

    Would it be possible for those who are interested to send you a quilt block to be made into a quilt for your baby??? You can set the parameters--size, color, pattern, etc.

    Please say yes!!!

    I did no know that about names... Is there a reason they do not want you to take your husband's name?
