This is a tribute to one of my favorite blogs, one you should all be reading for the genius of what he comes up with to say; Renial Failure
The team over there gave some very good suggestions for names, some are even names we were thinking about!
Here is our final list:
Girls;
Niamh ( pronounced Neeve)
Emily
Sophia
Fiona
Boys;
Apollo
Orion
Eric
We did appreciate the suggestion of Beatrix and Tarja (we actually know a few living up here in Minnesota), I’ll mention them to Lars. Tag is really not a bad name but we draw the line at Larkin as a middle name, we have also considered and decided against helpful suggestions like Snake and Shep and Tree, you can totally have Teagan.

Great choices. I like Niamh which is relatively uncommon near where I live. Emily
and Sophia are quite popular right now as this map of popular baby names shows. The map also has the top names in Minnesota.

Lol. Although if you do decided to name your baby after a Final Fantasy Character I would go with Cloud.

Congrats on your baby! I love the comparisons in the same shirt. I wish I had thought of that!!
I’m 34 weeks now, myself.
Wishing you the best on your welcoming your new baby into the world.

middle name for a boy would be Konrad and for a girl Mizzi. Pack leader (since we are fairly sure we are having a girl) is Niamh Mizzi Luthner – so NML
