A couple in New Zealand is not being allowed to name their newborn '4real' because the 'rules' say names cannot start with a number. While another mother in Great Britain has given her newborn daughter TWENTY FIVE middle names. Which she (the mother) apparently has herself. It took her until she was 10 to memorize all her names.
The couple naming the child '4Real' said they came up with it when they had their first sonogram and their upcoming arrival became 'real'. I think it's cute. And meaningful. For now, they're just calling him 'Real'. Which is also a good, meaningful name. And they have the rest of their lives full of 'Real' to experience just how real it is and how real it's gonna get.
Blessings to both new arrivals and their folks.
