Congratulations, Lush! I hope wee Peregrin Beren Thorin Estel and his mommy are both doing well.

Don't you just love ultrasound techs?

Thanks guys. It was a difficult birth, but they're both Ok. He is an extremely cute baby, such a little kitten. For my money, he looks like a Peregrin. Not that anyone is going to listen to me.

Anarion is also a good one, but I think it sounds almost too fancy.

And as for the ultrasound techs, well they do like to pretend they know everything sometimes.

How about William in my honour? Then his nickname would be Will just like me. Except I'm Wil, but thats a minor detail.

Gandalf

Actually, I read a story in a newspaper last summer or whenever it was, about this guy, they wrote a good bit before they casually dropped his name into a sentence. His name was Gandalf Appearently, it's an ancient Norwegian name from the Edda, but really, no-one here is going to relate it to anything but Tolkien.

I always liked the idea of naming a girl Tinúviel, Tina for short, but I'm not sure about boys' names. A friend of mine once said that she couldn't marry a man who wouldn't agree to name his son Aragorn..

I agree. That name has always been in my mind very beautiful and majestic.

I tried to name my parent's second dog (a white, male, very fluffy pomeranian) after Tilion, but they immediately stuck their noses up to it... Now I call their other pomeranian (a female, who is red) Arien, just to spite them. Unfortunately, they like this nickname. I just wish they would accept that if your going to have an Arien, you need a Tilion as well! It drives me mad sometimes...
