Why we're never having kids

[crystallinegirl]

Reason #452:
Their names would be Augustus Julius Hall and Cleopatra Antoinette Hall.

D'awwwwww, Gus Hall would be cute! :P

Heh, except Alex would insist on calling him by his full name. Augustus, no nicknames. Many lulz were had while we were discussing these. XD

You forget though, Augustus is not an unusual name for me. I have at least two cousins named Augusto. :P

Lol, we nearly went with Augustus as a middle name. He's named after his grandfathers, Joe and August. Greg thought it would be fair, since we were lengthening Joe to Joseph, to lengthen August to Augustus. I ended up vetoing it as politely as I could. Not in love with August, but it made some people happy... And we ran out of boy names we could agree on. (Dan calls the baby, "JoJo Augie." Gus Hall sounds way better than Augie Hall ;D)

My ex-husband was adamant we name our kid Michelangelo Leonardo Donatello Raphael. And he was 27 at the time. ...he didn't get any say in the naming process after that (which actually kind of works out, since who doesn't love not having to compromise with anyone?).

There's a band called Augie March that I quite like...

Augustus is a family name and my youngest's middle name. :D

The way I like to name pets I'd fear what I'd name my kids. They'd end up with names like Pickles McJellybean or something.

Sounds like my cats names almost.
