Do you know why you were named whatever you are named? Like after a grandparent?

Names are weird. Annoying how every name is a world hash. Every time a new parent announces a baby name you get a glimpse of a world they’re seeing.

Named for dad’s sister. My kids weren’t named for family but after historical figures/names we liked. For our last baby I had a vivid dream very early in pregnancy where a baby was telling me she was a girl, what her name was, and how to spell it. Went with it. 🤷🏻‍♀️

It was very weird. A friend’s daughter has a similar name and in the dream I told the baby that and she said hers was spelled differently and then repeated the spelling a few times. It was very specific, and a name we hadn’t ever considered. Who knows. It felt important somehow.
