Re: NOTD Thursday - Greek names

  • I like AlexandRA and Nicholas. No thanks to the rest.
    IUI - BFP! Baby boy born still - August 2012
    IVF - BFP - miscarriage June 2013
    FET - BFN
    FET - BFN
    Switched clinics
    IVF with PGD - three embryos created, all healthy - July 2014
    FET - transferred two embryos (boy and girl) - Nov 2014 - BFP!
    Baby Boy born July 2015

  • I love the Greek-ness of all of them, but I don't think I could get away with any of them since I don't have a drop of Greek in me. I wouldn't side eye any, but wouldn't use any of them. Except Nicholas. That one I could use!

    In Christ alone my hope is found. He is my LIGHT, my STRENGTH, and my SONG!

  • None of them are my style.
    "I said what I meant and I meant what I said, an elephant's faithful 100%" Dr. Seuss, Horton Hatches The Egg. My Ovulation Chart Ttc buddies with LexiMS!
  • I'm with RAB. I adore the Greek-ness of them (was huge into Greek mythology growing up), but most wouldn't work for us, especially with our already crazy Italian last name. Dorian could work, if only our last name didn't also start with a 'D'. :P
