I chose to name my two girls after the matriarchs of my combined family.
My eldest is Callie Anne - first name is her great great grandmother's name, middle name is both my mother's and my ex-husband's mother's middle name.
My baby girl is Margaret Rae (Maggie for short) - first name after her paternal great grandmother, middle name is my aunt's middle name.
Unfortunately - they're nicknamed "monster & maggot"
(and yes folks, that story is just too long to tell!)
