I'm not expecting...

But yes, Gen and I are going to be providing Emilie with a little
brother or sister...

Hurray!
Any reason for the persuasion towards Oliver, Olivia .. like being named
after a family member?


No. Just names we like. The big thing for us is that the name needs to
be easily pronouncable both in english (my mothers side of the family)
and french (my father's side and Gen's side).

I love the name Olivia! I like Katerine, too. Not so keen on Olivier, but
then again, NO ONE liked my daughter's name (Rowan) until after she was
born. Now they LOVE her name, and it suits her perfectly. So go with what
YOU (and your wife) like rather than what anyone else thinks.

Names are fun, but also tough to pick for other people. So many names have
connotations from our personal experiences; people we know or knew in the
past. Also, I tend to like Irish/Gaelic names which probably won't flow as
nicely for you.

There are tons of websites with name suggestions. I've been using them to
look at puppy names.

Congratulations on your impending addition!! I hope he/she is very healthy
and that your wife's pregnancy is as well.

I can't help think of Oliver the Charles Dicken's character.. so I LOVE the
name.
As for Rowen, I think of the Elf in The Lord of the Rings. And as a LOTR
fan, I love Rowen too!

I love the name Rowan!! Like diddy, it has a very old/Irish/Gaelic/
LotR air to it. I ask for suggestions because I *suck* at coming up
with names.

I don't have any personal restrictions on names that I can think of.
Gen OTOH, as a teacher, has a large list of name that *ARE NOT
ALLOWED* (to be said in Voice of God voice, complete with reverb).

There are tons of websites with name suggestions. I've been using them to
look at puppy names.

Her last pregnancy went very well. No morning sickness and, aside from
a brief scare when the OB/GYN couldn't hear Emilie's heartbeat (turns
out Gen has a tilted uterus or something like that that makes it hard
to hear the heartbeat), it went smooth as silk. Hopefully this one is
the same.

Marcel
