Hey friends, I have a new article, How I Named 11 Babies, being featured over at Circle of Moms. Go check it out. And what the heck, like it while you’re there too.

Birth and Newborn Photographer in Bellingham documents daily life with 14 children.
Well written, and I do love their names. Unique yes, and I like that! I have 4 children: 2 boys: Ezra & Zephan and 2 girls: Kzena & Zaraya. Question: When & Why did Almanzo start being called Enoch?
LOVE the article! Beautiful names for beautiful kids!
I love your kid’s names!
The names are great, yes, but I love that stroller!
I’m going to need one of those in the next couple of months.
Love the article, such unique and fitting names
Thank you
Unusual, yes, but I love the names!
Question, as I prepare to name my first daughter, why is the “a” at the end of Adalia’s name silent? Or maybe my question is why did you add the “a”….though I think I may have answered that question on my own, since other possible spellings without the “a” don’t look right either, or have their own alternate pronunciations. I do think pronouncing her name with an “a” at the end is also a beautiful name. My husband really loves the name Thalia and would love to name our daughter that and I really think this name “looks” pretty-but is a pronunciation nightmare. I’m not even sure what my favorite way to pronounce it would be of the 4-6 different ways I can think of off the top of my head! Therefore, I don’t think we will be choosing that name. Does is bother Adalia to have to correctly pronounce her name for people, or is it no big deal?
People ALWAYS pronounce her name wrong. I wanted to spell it: Adalie, but Chuck wanted to spell it Adalia. In hindsight, we probably would have chosen Adalie.
What about ‘Adalai’?
‘Adalie’ seems like it would be mispronounced as ‘Ad-a-lee’…
