After toiling with many different names, we wanted to choose a name that was elegant, and that reminded us of someone that we would be happy to relate with. I can only hope our Juliette will be as smart and successful:-)<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/mommymd.net\" target=\"_blank\">MommyMD<\/a> and I actually had a hard time agreeing with a name. I still think Penelope Gwen would have worked well, or rather I wanted to name #1 Penelope and then #2 Gwen. If I was ever mad at them both, I could yell out PENGWEN COME HERE! Alas, no.<\/p>\n<p>As for the Chinese name, we gave this honor to the grandparents to decide. The name would have to follow the &#8220;Generation name&#8221; which ViviBear kicked things off with &#8220;Shin&#8221;, &#8220;\u6b23&#8221;. Not the &#8220;appropriate&#8221; romanization but. meh.<\/p>\n<p>For Juliette, \u00a0my parents came up with Shin-Hui (\u6b23\u6167) which means &#8220;happy wisdom&#8221;. I do hope this means she is smart.<\/p>\n<p>\u8521\u6b23\u6167<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><strong>710am:<\/strong> Just checked in. Apparently a busy day for preggo people.
