This is my son, Laertes Vyvyan.
You Say: What cute little boy!

You Say: Wow, I haven't heard that in a while.
You Think: I haven't and though it reminds me of the cartoon, I still kinda like it. Maybe as a middle name.
This is my daughter, Miami.

You Say: Do you read the Authorian legends?
You Think: Do you? I love it.
