My daughter Emily is 8 and she has a set of those five quintuplet dolls called the "Fivesies." They are like Barbies, only smaller. They came out about 4 years ago and you could buy sets to go with them like 5 high chairs, 5 rocking horses, a house with 5 rooms, etc. Em's aunt Amy started her on these and Emily began to expect something every Christmas from her.
That said, Emily names her dolls. These particular names are very orginal.
Pinky, Bluey, Greeny,
Yellowy, Purpley
The names coincide with the color of outfits they are wearing.
Obviously....
A couple of years back Emily wanted a baby kitten so badly. We had 2 cats already, but they are old and fat and she wanted a kitten. My aunt happened to find one abandoned in a gas station parking lot and asked if we would like to have it. I thought, what a perfect way to get Emily a kitten. For free!
She named him....
Blacky
Yes, he is, you guessed it, all Black.
Al and I were talking about how she names dolls, pets, etc. and how we named pets as a child.
Yep. I had a dog named Montana. We got her in, you guessed it, Montana.
At least we can say she comes by it honestly. And I am glad I outgrew that phase when my children came around. I think
Emily, Carter and Casey
are pretty great names!
Maybe it was Al's influence??

I do love your kids names!
This means if I would have named Ellie the first moment I saw her, her name would have been bluey!
:)
Fun post!
Too funny!
What a creative & fun post... it really makes you think about why you name things what you do :)
I'm enjoying reading through your blog.
