| he'll go by Jack |
When we married, we started talking about our future chid(ren)'s names. I've had my girl name picked out since I was 13 and thankfully Ben was great with it. We went back and forth with boy names before we chose Jackson Charles!
I'm huge on family names. I think it's important to give our children a sense of family and hopefully pride. I also love the idea of our family history continuing.
Both of my Great-Grandfathers on my Dad's side were named Andrew Jackson. . I've always loved the name Jackson so we agreed that would be a great first name. Our son will also share a name bond with his cousin Drew (Andrew Jackson), which I love!
Of course I didn't want to hog his entire name with my family, after all he is 1/2 B's! We went through every male relative's name and instantly clicked with Charles! Charles is both his late Grandfather and Uncle's name and is perfect for our son.
I simply cannot wait to meet our sweet Jack!




what a great name!
