A couple months ago when we found out we were having twin girls... names have been tough to decide. All along if we had a girl, Paisley would be her name... but now we need another one. I went through the big baby name book twice and nothing really struck me for the second name. Getting frustrated, I told Brandon it's his job to pick the other name. :) A few days later, he came to me and said he heard the old George Strait song "Check Yes or No" and really liked the name Amy Lou in the song. I don't really like the name Amy, but I liked the Lou part, so I wasn't totally against it. As the weeks have gone by, he's been sticking with it! Kind of concerning me lately. haha. And he's been getting lots of crap from family about picking Amy Lou and that it doesn't go with Paisley at all. THEN, Missy to the rescue! She text Brandon last night correcting him that in the song the gals name is actually Emmylou, not Amy Lou. I LOVE Emmylou!!! It's totally cute and seems more country to me to go along with Paisley. I really liked the name Emma, but not with Paisley, so Emmy was easy to love for me. Brandon and I both agree now. :)
I'm so excited we now have two names that seem to "fit"... Paisley Ann & Emmy Lou.
