Here's mine!

Born Estuardo, now Gavin Estuardo

Darn, my photos won't upload, size too big.

I never heard of the name before either, some of the baby name books don't even list it, yet it does seem common in Guatemala.
and they are all cuties!

He was named Marvin Estuardo by the foster mom. Marvin after a previous foster child and Estuardo after her bio-son. We're keeping Estuardo as a middle name.

I believe Estuardo really means "handsome hunk of a baby with contageous grin and huge dark eyes". That's what MY babybook says!
