So, here's the official announcement: Wilder's brother's name will be Hunter Nathaniel Scott.
One Wilder. One Hunter. We know this decision makes us look like those parents, — but in the end, we decided we don't care. As Jerry and I discussed, you can't name a boy Bob if his brother's name is Wilder. When he's 16, he's gonna undoubtedly ask: "Hey, why'd my brother get the chick magnet name and I got Bob???"
Thanks to my sister Tara, who, when asked if giving our boys such names made us look like weirdo parents, responded: "No, I think it makes you look like people who chose cool names for your kids."
And to my friend Brenda (the former Miss Nanny B), who, when asked the same, said: "Kris, if you're gonna fly your freak flag, fly your freak flag high." (Say that five times fast!)
Good advice, no matter the question, I think.
And finally, thanks to those who offered up numerous humorous suggestions for Wilder's little brother, including: Tamer, Milder and Wet. Good stuff, people, good stuff.
