Perhaps if they have a girl, she should be named CAROLINA – obviously after UNC! :-)

I know *where* Jason went to school, but look the above name sounds better than Duke for a human name, the latter reminds me of the dog from Bush’s beans!

I am also a happy Meredith with the nickname of Dith. People always tell me how nice of a name it is. (This is strange because I only know one other Meredith.)
Other semi-uncommon girl names:
Abigail, Natalie, Clara, Victoria

I’ve been a happy Meredith for 25 years now. It’s common enough that most people know how to spell it and rare enough that meeting someone with the same name is something of an event. It also seems to be playground name-twist proof. And people are always telling me what a pretty name it is.

Congrats!! You’re going to love parenthood, it’s the best! Good luck to your wife for a safe and speedy L & D!

Also, I may be partial, but ‘Adrienne’ is a great girls name. It’s done right by me. :D I see there’s more than one of us here too, so that must mean we’re really smart. ;) Or think we are…

Congrats, Jason! When I had my daughter, we had boy names picked out, because everyone was convinced the baby was a boy. We had a girl. We named her Riley, which had been one of our top boy name picks. I’ve always liked gender-neutral names.

If it’s a boy, we’re all set. But if anyone wants to suggest girl names, we’re still in the market.

Congrats, Jason! Are we going to have a baby-naming blog contest, or do you already have that angle covered? :)

I’ve heard that Jason will also instill in his child a love of all things Zubaz. That, and a mean turnaround jumper.
