The Red Thread

Once our eyes have been opened we can't pretend that
we don't know what to do; for God who weighs our hearts and keeps our souls
knows that we know and holds us responsible to act. Proverbs
24:12

What's in a name?

Elliot has decided that we should change Owen's name to Finn McMissile.   At first we all got a nice laugh out of it.  He was very serious about the name.  But after calling "him" Finn for a few days now, I am starting to like it.  OK, I may not calling him Finn McMissile, but I do like Finn. 

What is it with my kids and names.  Many of you may remember that Ansley was dead set on naming Elliot, Charmin Hinkle, (good thing he was not a girl).  Iris got off easy, however, she has somehow become "Pork chop" 

So should we go with Finn or stick with Owen?  If we use Finn, we need help with a middle name.  Owen's current name is Yong Chen.  They most likely call him Chen Chen.  We obviously can't call him Finn Chen Chambers.  So maybe McMissle isn't so bad.  Any thoughts?
