Naming the Guppy

July 23, 2014

Me: Hey sweetie, if The Baby in Mommy’s Tummy is a girl, what do you think we should name her?

Daughter: Bubble Guppy.

Me: Like, one of the characters’ names on Bubble Guppies? Like Oona, or Deema?

Daughter: No. Just Bubble Guppy.

Me: Okay, what if it’s a boy?

Daughter: Bubble Guppy Boy.

Me: Well, that settles that.

Well, NEWCHILD would be set for a life in Hollywood early on, right?

  That is true. And I’ll admit, it would look pretty fantastic on a birth certificate.

Hahaha. No one can contest that she’s giving your new one the cutest name ever. Ever. :D

  It is pretty cute. The reality of saying “Hey, Bubble Guppy. Get over here and put your shoes on” kind of brings it down a few notches, though.

You almost tricked me into listening to that theme song. That was just wrong.

Hahahaha oh man! That is adorable. My parents let me help name my first little brother. His name is Philip Brian Sebastian (we have 2 middle names in our family) guess which one a 3 1/2 year old girl born in the late 80’s picked? Yup. I named him after The Little Mermaid, I tried for Ariel but that wasn’t going to fly.

  Nice! It definitely could have been worse than Sebastian–the names Aladdin and Beast come to mind.
