What's in a name?

We decided on the baby’s name awhile ago, but I didn’t want to blog about it because Won kept going back and forth with it. For example, during the Olympics, he wanted desperately to name her Nastia after the US Gymnastics Blonde Phenom. Nastia and then "Nas" for short...good thing it was just a phase. He also liked Logan after a female volleyball player. I guess he has a thing for female athletes.

We’re 99% sure we are naming her Lila Kim. I fell in love with that name after watching Friday Night Lights…terrible huh? Normally parents have these wonderful stories about naming their child after someone special in their lives or something meaningful that has happened, but we’re naming her after watching that football show with “Lila Garrity” as the cheerleader played by Minka Kelly who once dated John Mayer but has now been seen with Derek Jeter. BTW, I love celebrity gossip. She does play a cheerleader on the show…there’s some sort of connection with me?

According to www.babynames.com:
The meaning of the name Lila is Lilac Tree

The origin of the name Lila is Persian

Also a Hebrew name, meaning 'you are mine'.

I’ll leave ya with some pics of Lilacs…my new favorite flower!
