I come from a family that names absolutely everything. Everyone's cars have names, the houses have names, even certain cups and foods have names. My car is a silver compact that is named 'Bully' after a silver bullet. Our other car is a mid-sized SUV name 'Biggie' because it's bigger than Bully. Men usually name their "man", and women usually name their "girls", so I cannot imagine that this a mystery concept.

My hubby, who I just married a year ago, has adopted this practice quite comfortably. We've been brainstorming for a name for my band. When I tell people that I am getting a band, I always explain it as a tool that "keeps me honest." So far the best name that we've come up with is 'Abe' for "Honest Abe"-President Abraham Lincoln. If we can figure out an acronym for Abe, we'll keep it. Maybe something like Anchors Before Eating but waaaaaayyyyy more clever. Think, think, think....

Are you naming your band?

"2- 2" (too too) is mine cause its the 2nd chance i have with this gut to loose "2ce" the weight.

I am no where near as creative as all you guys....mine is "Lappy the lap band" So for Lappy has been good with me...I can't wait till everything is healed and I can sleep on my belly again!

So we've finally settled on Stanley! I ordered a silver baby feeding spoon with his name and birthdate engraved on it so that I will eat itty-bitty bites and not make him sick. :sneaky:

Some day I'll have that spoon mounted in a shadow box with a before and after picture (of me, silly, not Stanley :thumbup:)

Too bad you can't get your band engraved too before it goes in.:thumbup:
