A rose by any other name




. . . would not smell as sweet.

Do you have a namesake? You should get one.

Meet Baby Shelby, 1-year-old to my college roommate and all-around fabulous person, Cassie.

I somehow refrained from either eating her or sneaking her home in my carry-on.

Feel free to name your children after me, too. I promise to come visit sometime and send a very nice gift.

I have one! Unfortunately it is my sister Val's dog, Piper Paige. Rude, I know. But I still buy him namesake gifts.

hmmm. Shelby Soucy does sound nice. I would love for any of my children to be like you.

My only namesake was my cousin's pet rat...I wasn't sure whether to be insulted or complimented.

Good to finally see a photo of you! You look great btw.

And I don't think I know anyone that would give their child my name.

Cute little girl! I was quite often called Shelby by my ex-boyfriend's mother. I don't know if she ever got it right.

Our friends named their daughter Ashby, and I have yet to meet her. It's the only one I know with my name.

PS - You look great! Love your hair!
