"This is our daughter, Magnolia Jean. We call her Nola."
You Say: What a lovely name.
You Think: I've never thought of Nola as a nn for Magnolia. Very nice.
"This is our son, Ignatius Ray. He goes by Iggy."
You Say: Iggy is such a sweet nickname!
You Think: I love Ignatius because of Confederacy of Dunces. Ray doesn't seem to go with it though.
"This is our daughter, Juniper Agnes."
You Say: I love your name.
You Think: Don't know what to think about Juniper. But I adore Agnes.
"This is our son, Horatio Kolbe."
You Say: What a name!
You Think: I dislike both Horation and Kolbe for the 'o' sounds in both. And Horatio is too close to Ignatius for me.
"These are our triplets, Joachim Edgar, Amias Quincy, and Agnes Roberta."
You Say: How sophisticated!
You Think: The names are not really my style, but I still like them. Isn't Juniper's middle name Agnes, though? That's my only quip.
