I just realized why I can't quite work with the name Kip -- Kip Winger!
It's all about choices, Faith. The ones we make, and the ones we don't. Oh, and the consequences. Those are always fun.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
There are at least two other people with my first and last name--an Irish artist and a South American socialite. Low-assed odds.

I swear there was a set of twins in my kinder named Muffy and Buffy. I'll have to ask my mom, because even as I seem to remember them, just....really? And besides, I was the kid who called my friend "Forehead."

Now tagless for your comfort.
My grandfather's name was Newton. He went by Newt. I briefly considered the name for Owen but was shot down. Which is crazy, considering my mathematician husband!

I have cousin Newt! First, once-removed, I think. And his wife's name is Anneliese - I'm not sure I'm spelling that right - and I like both of those names, especially hers.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

Jesse- I am weirded out, because my favorite name is Marguerite, nicknamed Daisy!
I also like Susan, because it sounds strong and kind.

Don't be weirded out, because it is the cutest thing ever! Even though my grandmother thinks it's tacky.
I just realized I probably can't do it now because my cousin just named her daughter Mason-called-Masey (Mason is a family name).

I love the name Virgil!
I have noticed a lot of two-named girls since we moved to GA: Anna Grace, Katie Grace, Anna Frances, and there's one other at Casper's school that I am forgetting.
My Texas family always called me by both names--Lisa Ann. My niece is an Anna Grace but she just goes by Anna (except my Texas dad calls her by her full name, the cycle continues).
My grandmothers were Hazel and Lillian. My sister called dibs on Lillian, which was fair since Lillian wasn't my biological grandmother.
My good friends who had a baby girl this year (and had the babyshower where I met Chicago Bob) named her Hazel after a grandmother. They have mostly been calling her Zellie. I love it!
