We cannot decide on a name for the baby and seem to be running out the clock on registering her. We have a short list, but can’t make up our minds.
Alberta is a very meaningful family name but it’s a bit outré and I’m not sure … I love it pronounced in Spanish (ahl-bear-ta) less so in English. I think Bertie and Albie are adorable nicknames but … is too much? Do we think 9,14 and 23 year old Alberta will hate it or she won’t care because she goes by a nickname?
We have other children with traditional names that are also from the family, but they’re all more common than Alberta.
