The Name Game!

Before we knew what we were having we had names picked out for either sex. The girl middle name was still giving us a little trouble, but the boy was set! The name was going to be Christopher after Austins friend who died in a car accident when he was 16. Austin told me that would be his sons name before we ever got married or talked about children. Of course I let him have the name because it was so special to him and it's his first son. However, I always liked Christopher better as a middle name because it's rather common... not unique & such a long name! I mentioned a few names that he liked but Christopher was it!!

Well....

One night (a few nights before Christmas) we were on the couch watching TV & he just started laughing looking at his phone. So I said... uh? Whats so funny? He said oh I just did this name your phone thing on facebook. Hmm ok. Then he convinced me to do it & I NEVER do stuff like that so I said no, but he insisted. So I did it and the name of my phone was Naomi Cohen. When I said it out loud we looked at eachother and he was like Oh... I really like the name Cohen! I said I did too & it's so cute! So he said Christopher Cohen.... NO! I did not like it. I did not want a random middle name, the middle name had to be after someone special. So I said how about Cohen Christopher? He thought about it and said.. I think I like that! So I swear it was a "moment" & am now a firm believer that any special names you have picked out you might as well throw out the window because their name will come to them one way or another.
