I decided to lay off the CAFs for a few days and instead focus on "name the next baby" posts. This one will last three rounds.

Ellen Jessica (32)
DS:
Gregory is a cranky football fan, while
Ellen is a chipper secretary. They seem like an unlikely couple, but they've been married for two years. Now
Ellen is having a boy.
Gregory is rather egotistic, so he wants the FN to be the same as his.
Ellen agrees, and she wants the MN to start with J.
