Also, "Helena Elise" (another great grandmother although I had to make up the middle name - I had the initial and Elise is my granddaughter's middle name) and "Aurelia Adelle" (Aurelia is pronounced or-ail-ia) and is my Grandma's middle name. Adelle is my other granddaughter's middle name. I really love the name Aurelia. I too thought of a smart alec response, like Maureen, but unlike Maureen, mine is too discusting to post! lol!

Then someone gave me several patterns from the 50s. When the gds turned 3 they got a giant box of clothes from me but it's all velcro closures these days so I'm not stuck with "could you unhook (or unsnap) this every few minutes. Anyway...<br /><br />As far as names I will suggest names from my DHs family tree - can't remember right off if it was his Dutch or German line but one of his gggs whole name was Gesina Josephina Celestina. So those are my three names. Together they seem kind of musical/poetical to me.Cathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12793711897790110579noreply@blogger.com
