Baby naming is a dangerous business. Everyone wants in on it. Everyone is an expert. When people meet Piper, they either love or hate the name. The first time I took her to meet our pediatrician he said, “What? You named her Pepper?” He declared her a healthy baby with insane parents.
There are many versions to the story of how Piper became a Piper. I’ll share a few in the next coming blogs, but here is an article I wrote for Mothering Magazine when I was pregnant with Piper about the perils of baby naming.

What? Me? I’m so flattered! Thanks so much. I look forward to the challenge!
I loved the article! It was so well-written and entertaining! I’m still at a loss for a middle name for #2, so this hit home.
Thanks for reading! If you’re in need of naming strategies, tomorrow’s blog will help. Stay tuned.
