It's official!! We named baby boy today and filed it on his birth certificate: Malcolm Oberon Till.
Malcolm: His first name comes from Chris's grandfather (Dorothy's father), Malcolm John McPhail. It was the first name that Chris mentioned after baby was born and I felt resonance right away when looking at boy. It also ties in his Scottish heritage.
Oberon: This comes in the tradition of having a magical middle name. I've always loved that Rhiannon, my middle name, means sprite or fairy priestess. It also ties in his German heritage.
Awesome! Congrats.
ReplyDeleteI love it:)
ReplyDeleteI love it too. I'm so glad to be able to tell people my grandson's name.
ReplyDeleteLove it! So glad to know you by name sweet little Malcolm!
ReplyDeleteStopped by because I forgot to wish you a happy birthday yesterday. Happy birthday! I hope you did something fun! And I LOVE his name! Both Malcolm and Oberon--love it!
ReplyDeleteWhitney! Lainey just sent me your blog address. Sorry I'm so late to the party.
ReplyDeleteI love the name. And he is beautiful.

Thanks everyone. I'm glad it's resonating well. I am very happy with it as well, though it feels odd for him to even have a name. It was nice when he was just Boy (that's still what I usually call him anyways).
