Cute names for a cute baby! I do love Bea, but piranha is also pretty awesome!

Been thinking of you lots as you start this new adventure. Hopefully you’re getting a little rest every now and again:)

I love her name and I love your little baby B. I wasn’t sure how to pronounce her middle name at first, but thought it was a cool name and a great way to celebrate your nordic heritage. Blessings to your family!

I think your daughter’s name is lovely in sonancy and significance. I think I finally have Annakaisa down. Sorry I had to have you pronounce it for me, like, a thousand times. ♥

Oh yes, I remember after I had James, one of the lactation consultants called him a little barracuda.

I love the name and thanks for sharing.
But I have to say “Gentle Giant” and “Piranha” right next to each other as nicknames… hmm.. I can see where the list would change frequently.
I pray she will continue to bring TONS of joy to you as she grows.

Gentle Giant. She will never live that down.

Well, I think it’s beautiful and also wonderful that her name has such a history and meaning.

she lived with joy and loved recklessly

Beautifully put. I hope that someday my grandkids could say that about me.
