Reviving this thread because it's so interesting!

First, to Schmenna = I was born 'BS' and married to become 'Bowl.Movement.' = I have always used my middle initial in my signature ... I'm sure your mom endured some teasing cause I know I sure did before I added the middle initial to my monogram!

I ALWAYS consider initials in names, but I didn't really clue into my grandma's until I inherited her monogrammed suitcase after she passed away = 'FAB' which is kind of cool! but I thought then about her maiden name - 'FAT'
Poor grandma!!!

Our nephew and his wife, to whom we are very close, have recently discovered that they are expecting - she shares my compulsiveness about names! Her family has a tradition where the first born girl is given the mother's first name as the middle name. Middle initial would be 'A', last name is 'W'. Limits some name choices.
Lucky nephew was given 'BMW', that's a good set of initials.
I love names. I need to investigate where I can get some input on choices for this baby - nephew's wife and I really kind of like one! but it's a little wild ... I'll get some opinions from all of you once I find the right place to post ...
