In short: Maggie's a girl who can hang. <BR/><BR/>As an educator, unless you want her to be one of 5 girls who turns her head when someone says "Emily," stick with a name that's not in the top 10. <BR/><BR/>LOVE Cecilia- it was on our short list as well. Funny thing about Maggie and Cecilia, both are imortalized in song by being heartbreakers. <BR/><BR/>My favorite Maggie song is by Colin Hay "When I first set eyes on you/First you beat me up,<BR/>Then you kissed me too.<BR/>We'd throw stones into the sea/There were no others there/Just you and me." <BR/><BR/>First you beat me up- does that sound like childbirth or what?<BR/><BR/>Like Rod's version, the affair ends in heartache, but she's worth it :)<BR/><BR/>Here's the vid: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4qCBvWKLv_4<BR/><BR/>I dare you not to blubber like a wee baby when you watch it.Challenge 20/20 teamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01828028554265021913noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17779098.post-36362248501147696192008-05-06T06:50:00.000-05:002008-05-06T06:50:00.000-05:00Cecilia.

When the husband and I picked it five years ago we had NEVER heard of a girl named Avery (it's traditionally a boys name). But as soon as she was born, they were popping up everywhere. It really kind of annoys me because I wanted my daughter to have a semi-unusual (yet still recognizable) name, not a trendy, top-ten name. Nonetheless, I still love the name. :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
