Which Name Would YOU Choose?

SO, the big news this week is that I was switched to a new location at work. It's not as dire as it sounds but it's still an issue of leaving your comfort zone. Our supervisors came up with this "wonderful" idea to switch the loan officers from each of our three locations on base to begin a rotation so they could more "fairly" see how each of us are doing at our job. I am trying to be nice about this even though I completely don't want to change locations. Like I said, it's not an issue of if I am going to do well, it's purely comfort zone. Well, I guess it isn't all that bad. There are only three of us loan officers here at our location and that means I get plenty of people coming through to keep me busy. Plus, my mom's office is right down the hall so we can go to lunch anytime we want! Haha But I did lose my two windows in my "corner office"... sad times.

This pic is from our trip to Seaworld! Lots of fun.On to better topics. :) Kimi and I are debating on names for our little girl. We've whittled away and have now come down to two names. Ultimately, though, we will have to choose from our gut and that's been the hardest part b/c my gut has a lot of other things going on inside there... it's hard to hear it clearly! Haha Anyway, we'd like to hear from you guys on which names you like. Look at this picture first though before you decide. See that goofy grin I've got? Haha


Here goes:

Makenna Grayce Fox

or

Madilynne Elizabeth Fox

Now, we are leaning toward Makenna Grayce b/c of how spunky that name is and it's not very common, which is a plus. However, Madilynne Elizabeth is close to our family. Maddy is the name of Kimi's great grandma (? not sure ?), Lynne is Kimi's moms middle name, and Elizabeth is my mom's first name, plus it's the long version of Betty - Kimi's Grandma's name!
SOOOO, as you can see, lots of family ties there.


Tell us which name you would choose and why/why not. We'd love to hear some of your thoughts. Thanks guys for everything!

Hmm...I wonder who came up with William Jack? I personally like Maddylynn or however you spell it. I think it's very cute, a lot easier to get nicknames from. Which is always a plus. Of course Mackenna could always have the nickname of Big Mac? Whatever name she ends up getting will be great!
I love you two!

Makenna Grayce Fox is absolutely BEAUTIFUL! Of course so is Maddylynn. Either way I'm sure people will say it wrong as many times as they do with Lilyanah! That really is gonna be a hard decision with the family ties in the second name! Thanks for the pic of Will by the way, very cute! I hope you guys are doing well & look forward to reading more of your journey! Love you 3! Wendy.
