Say my name
The hu’b and I are having our first parenting disagreement, and since I have no reason to call Car Talk, I thought I’d present it for your consideration, gentle reader. Consider… The Name.
We were invited to see Blue Lapis Light dance on the Federal Building about a year ago, and while it was getting dark enough for the performance, I was reading through the program. I happened upon a list of donors and found the most exceptional name! Brace yourself: Pebbles. Wadsworth.
Just imagine what a woman could accomplish in the big wide world with a name like Pebbles Wadsworth Middleton! And we could nickname her PW, or P-Dub, or Bull-bull… Anyone with a name this phenomenal would invariably grow up to become a trial lawyer, a Texas politician, or a deep sea explorer.
Alas, the bean’s father can not perceive the twinkling awesomeness of this name. I still can’t understand what his objections are, as whenever he tries to talk about them, all I can hear is Pebbles Wadsworth Pebbles Wadsworth Pebbles Wadsworth Pebbles Wadsworth Pebbles Wadsworth Pebbles Wadsworth Middleton.
Oh wise denizens of the magical interwebs, what do you think? Am I guilty of intended child abuse, or the most rockingest mama in the world?

I like it. It’s a name that says, “I have so much poise and breeding that everyday naming conventions just do not apply to me. Please excuse me now–my pilot is ill, I have to fly the plane to Bora-Bora myself, and those pre-flight checks take time.”

Ooooh, we totally called dibs on that name back at xmas-time, remember? You guys put your claim on Chewbacca Mussolini and we called Pebbles Wadsworth.

Honey, I think they are right… And besides a guy at work swears we’re having a boy anyway. We should let them have Pebbles Wadsworth.

I know Pebbles Wadsworth referred to in this articel and she is a woder woman. Pebbles is a “glass half full” person. She finds the 5% positive in a meeting and builds an action plan around it, discarding the 95% negatives. Pebbles is a “Blue Blood” transplant from the East and West Coasts. She is the 13th in a line of Roxalines. Since her Mother was called “Roxy” the daughter was called “Pebbles” (little rock). Her family roots go back to one of the first ships to land in America from England.
