Quote of the Day; Napolean Bonaparte

“The battlefield is a scene of constant chaos. The winner will be the one who controls that chaos, both his own and the enemies.”

Control the chaos and win the contest to help us name our firstborn that is scheduled to take this planet by storm on March 12th (ish).

Enter your name choice below. Right now, the rules are it has to come from Shakespeare, the Bible, or be found in the lineage of Medieval European Royalty. Stacey has other ideas like that it won't get our kid swirlied every day.

  2. Shakespeare offers a lot more names worthy of a swirly, so here are my choices:

    Rosencrantz Polonius Chlarson

    Hermia Ophelia Chlarson


    P.S. Congrats guys! Wow, Collin is going to be a dad. This is mind-blowing.

  3. How about just William, Bill, or Willie?
    The girl could be Billie, Wilma, or Winnie?!

  4. This is an actual email I got from my dad. I think there are a lot of good options in there for you.

    Ken,

    I just came across this in the Anglo-Saxon Chronicles. This may be where your name came from.

    A.D. 784 . This year Cyneard slew King Cynewulf, and was slain himself, and eighty-four men with him. Then Bertric undertook the government of the West-Saxons, and reigned sixteen years. His body is deposited at Wareham; and his pedigree goeth in a direct line to Cerdic. At this time reigned Elmund king in Kent, the father of Egbert; and Egbert was the father of Athulf.

  5. Amanda, Ken, and Brady. You guys have great ideas. The problem is that Stacey wants a name that won't get him picked on by other kids. She hasn't ruled out Sue for a boy because Johnny Cash highly recommends that approach.
