Naming baby

Hello my little one.....

           Right now your mommy and daddy are thinking about what they will name
you.  It is an important decision because your name stays with you for your entire
life.  They are looking for a name that will fit the baby you, the child you, the teenager
you and the adult/professional you.  They want one that will fit with your last name
(Janser), and one that is unique but likeable.  One that will not lend itself to teasing
(other children can be mercilous here) or ridicule. And, of course, one that doesn't
bring up bad memories for either your mom or dad.

          Most, but not all, names imply gender. This week when your mommy goes
to the doctor she thinks that she will know if you are boy or girl.  So the name
selection gets easier. 
Your Great Grandpa LeRoy hated his middle name his entire life (Horace).
Your Great Great Grandpa Gilbert Wesley was always called "Butch".  Your
Great Great Grandma Gertrude was called "Peggy". 
       Although my name is Sharon, I have been called Sharry since I went to nursing
school and found 4 other Sharon's in our school. That just seemed like too many!
       Your dad's name was created by his mom.  Your mom was named for my 
favorite teen star Shelley Fabares.  I really wanted to call her Anne Wesley, but
that was vetoed by the grandmas!
       So much to say that your "proper" name is just a beginning. 
       You will make yourself known in the world and the nick-naming
will take care of itself!
       Love, Grandma
