Name that baby No. 3

| | Comments (4)
I'm thinking Best Girl, after that song from "Mame" which kinda shows my showtunes-heavy playlist. Remember little Patrick sings this song to Mame:

Young Patrick:
You're my best girl and nothing you do is wrong,
I'm proud you belong to me;
And if a day is rough for me,
Having you there's enough for me.
And if someday another girl comes along,
It won't take her long to see,
That I'll still be found, just hanging around
My best girl.
Mame:
You're my best beau, you're handsome and brave and strong,
There's nothing we two can't face;
If you're with me, whatever comes,
We'll see that trouble never comes.
And if someday another beau comes along
Determined to take your place,
I hope he's resigned to falling behind,
My best beau.
Mame And young Patrick:
And if someday when everything turns out wrong,
You're through with the human race,
Come running to me,
Mame:
For I'll always be
Your best girl...
Young Patrick:
My best girl!

Hubby calls her, "Beautiful," or "Little One."

I was thinking maybe Beautiful Gorgeous, for fans of Jimmy Neutron. I just love how they piled on the adjectives. Beautiful Gorgeous was actually a villain (voiced by Wendie Malick of "Racing Stripes" and loads of TV shows.) This name, of course, is said with a wink. Although we think our daughter IS gorgeous, we wouldn't seriously call her that.

Anyway, she's calling me from her car seat now. (She slept on the way back from dropping Big Brother off at school, and I left her in there so I can write!)

Next!

Sweet Girl

Even when she is in her terrible two's it will help you to call her Sweet Girl.

How about Baby Mine?

How about Princess since, she is the only girl and the child that would probably have her daddy wrapped around her fingers?

Other suggestions:

"Charmer," from Judy, because baby's the only girl and No. 3 and "third time's the charm!"

from Eleanor, "Magayon," which is beautiful in Bicolano, a Philippine dialect. (Havta remember that!)
