If you choose Ayce he'll probably have to spend his life telling people how to pronounce it. Caro is a shortening of Caroline from what I've read. Bayo is ok, but does it have a meaning? Or is it a fancy way of spelling Bayou? I like Ezri (or Ezra) And I love Chester and Preston as MN's.

The more I think about it, the more I like Ezri Preston.It's got a nice ring to it for me. I like a name that you can shorten for every day (Ez or Ri) and a lonnnnnng name that you can stretch out when they get in trouble!" EZRI PRESTON GET DOWN FROM THERE RIGHT NOW!!" See, it totally works! original.gif
lovin it
Love Hadley.. We have just added this to our list after hearing it on tv last week.

I liked Spencer too, but Spencer Pratt has completely and utterly ruined it for me.
