OMG! The raddest twins EVER!
Okay, I'm so excited! I just got off the phone w/my best friend, Mel, who is expecting to give birth to her first children, twins -- boy and girl -- in September. She has been battling with names forever, and she just called me and said it is official and final -- their names are (drum roll please):Beowulf Xavier (m)
and
Lux Amadeus (f)Wow! She said, "My children will have no choice but to be extraordinary. Their names will demand it."She said she would order Beowulf ("Wulfie" for short) a little custom-made onesie that says, "I've come to kill your monsta." (Said like Ray Winstone in the awesome Beowulf movie.)Mel has long studied and been fascinated by the Beowulf legend -- by myth and legend in general, from Gilgamesh to the X-Men (hence the Xavier)-- and she is one hell of a unique individual, so I'm not surprised she made bold choices for her kids. Knowing their parents, I'm sure Beowulf and Lux will snuggle right into their unorthodox names.M.
