Names???
We are on our way to Rockville to transfer two 8-celled, Grade 1 (highest grade) embryos. I need names. My sweet Matthew and his mates were Red, Blue, Yellow (and Green and Purple and Pink) Fish, respectively. I can't think of anything I like enough for these two. So, help a girl out? I'll even make a donation to your choice of charity if you give me my favorite. Remember...I am praying we'll be using these names for about twenty weeks...I just can't think that way right now but want to be sure they have names when I introduce them later!!!

How exciting, Lori! I was looking back at some of my blog posts around this stage, and I was going to write and tell you that I only had one 4-celled, one 3-celled, and 2 2-celled the day before the ET, and that by ET day, we had 2 Grade-1 8-celled!!! I'm praying so hard for your little ones...BOTH of your little ones to make it. If you've been reading my blog, you can see that I'm horribly indecisive with fetal nicknames...I can't seem to stick with any of them...sorry I can't be of more help.
ReplyDeletePRAYING!!!!
I got nothin in the way of names...sorry! Just prayers! So thrilled with the way things have turned out so far!
ReplyDeletePraying!!!!!
XOXO
Lori I am so happy to hear the good news and will be praying for you and these little ones.
ReplyDeleteI'll ponder on some names.
With our first twins they were peanut 1 and 2, with our Zac and Evan they were my lil 'peas in my pod but called them lil' bean 1 and lil' bean 2.
But I'm really not all that creative. I'm sure you will find just the right names for these littles!
Hugs and prayers,
Heather (heathershope - HP)
Lori,
ReplyDeleteI am praying for you today and always! I like M&M and Skittles. I always craved those while pregnant and they always make me happy on a rough day :-)
Praying!!!!
Love, The Hetrich's from LBC
Oh I need some names too! But I'm no good at this!
ReplyDeleteSticking with a Dr. Seuss theme...Thing 1 and Thing 2?!
ReplyDeleteHoping and praying that two babies come home with you, Thing 1 and Thing 2 costumes would be cute for Halloween one day. :)
Or famous duos...Lucy & Ethel, Bonnie & Clyde, Felix & Oscar, Tweedledee & Tweedledum, Captain & Tenille, Batman & Robin, Salt & Pepper, Moose & Squirrel, Bacon & Eggs, Bert & Ernie, Pea & Carrot, Darryl & Darryl, Charlie Brown & Snoopy, Frankie & Johnny...I'm winding down. :)
Here's a whole list of famous pairs. Maybe you'll find something here: http://www.knowledgerush.com/kr/encyclopedia/List_of_famous_pairs/
ReplyDeleteSorry - it cut off my link:

haha I love Thing 1 and 2!! :-) Praying for ya girl!
ReplyDeletePraying for you...
ReplyDeleteAll I can think of are Greek letters (from all those sorority years..ha!)...Beta, Pi, Phi (I was a Pi Phi=), Chi, Delta
My friend named her children after gems: Amethyst, Emerald, Jasper...but those are not very neutral names...
The line from "Horton Hears a Who" of "a person's a person, no matter how small" is so appropriate. So I like the continuation of the Dr. Seuss theme. As mentioned, Thing 1 and Thing 2, as well as Horton, Morton, JoJo, Maysie, Green Egg, Ham, Yertle, Mack, Norval, etc. I assume you'd prefer non-gender-specific; this list may help: http://www.primate.wisc.edu/people/hamel/seuss.html.
ReplyDeleteIt's 1:05pm, so I'm thinking good thoughts right this moment. Eight-celled, Grade 1 embryos? Is it too early to label your children as overachievers?
I was thinking Thing 1 and Thing 2 also for the dr duras theme or hugs and kisses....praying they'll five you lots of those over the years :)
ReplyDeletePlease forgive all the spelling errors and auto corrections in previous post. Silly phone....
ReplyDeleteGood Luck!!!!
ReplyDeleteI'm not very good with names but......
egg and eggbert
Tator and tot
spick and span
Tinkie winkie
lala poe
Barney and fred

ReplyDeleteAs for names, I don't have a clue but my Chipmunk suggested Peanut Butter & Jelly;)
Peek and Boo...Peek-a-boo! I see you! Both of you!
ReplyDeletePraying that your little ones stay right where they need to be for the next 37 weeks!
Bun 1, Bun 2 or Honeybun 1 Honeybun 2 (a take off on having a "bun in the oven")
ReplyDeleteHi Lori this is Danielle's mom I like peanut butter and Jelly only because that is what I call my little two Danielle is Peanut and Amaya is Jelly. But other than those I like Little Pink Fish or Gold Fish and Orange fish. Danielle said Periwinkle, since they are a pair....she said name one Pair and the other Winkle = PeriWinkle...LOL

Jellyfish, anemonies, and corals, are just a few of the beautifully-named sea creatures that form symbiotic relationships with fish. You could give them a name like that to keep a strong name connection with Matthew.

ReplyDeleteOOps I'm sorry Danielle is mad at me because I forgot to tell you that she said Periwinkle is a mix of Blue and I said wow you are right I guess she just wanted her teacher to know that she knew her colors.
ReplyDeleteSo Peri-fish and Winkle Fish
