Lamb Season

Matilda's G-pop and Grandma Kathy are having new barnyard babies born daily and have requested some names. Tonight over dinner Matilda brainstormed a bunch of options for them to choose from. She has strong ideas about which names are for girl or boy lambs so to be clear I will separate them.

Potential Boy Lamb Names:

Ursli (After this story)

Billy (After the elephant at our zoo. Although I think Billy Jean might be a fitting tribute for this year.)

Lambie (This is Matilda's standard cop-out name if you ask her to name an animal. Swans become Swanie, Pigeons become pidgie, Basilisks become Bassie, etc.

Potential Girl Lamb Names:

Bunny (The pet rabbit at school is named Bunny Rabbit. You can guess who voted on that name!)

Alfie (After her favorite Macaw at the bird show)

Josie (After a school buddy)

Tim threw out Kristen & Brian as ideas (my & my brother's name). The big joke there is that the first sheep Dad & Kathy got they named Ivy. Ivy is a very old sheep and is still around today. Ivy was also a name that Tim always loved and wanted to name a daughter someday. Thankfully the sheep can't get all the blame there since I was never on board for Ivy as a kid name, regardless of the presence of our barnyard friend named Ivy.
