Well after 8 days of deliberation, and 3 name changes over 3 days, we have finally decided on a name for our baby:
ISABELLE MARIE LAU
You won't believe the amount of effort we went to! Our inital bottom line was that it must start with "K", in keeping with her siblings, and must have a meaning related to God. Why "K"? Cause we have two "J's", then if we were to have 2 "K's" and surname of "L" we could have a J, K, L...now we have I, J, K, L!
Well anyway, firstly, we agreed on Kaylee - which means "Who is like the Lord" However there was some pushback on this name from some family members. The next day we agreed on Kimberley. But after research, we found the meaning of this name to be nonsensical. So we did a search on all the girls names which mention the word "God" and we came up with Isabelle. Isabelle means my God is my vow. Isabelle is the French version of Isabel, and incorporates the word 'belle' - French for beautiful. We are both very happy with this name, and believe it suits our girl well!
Below are the many faces Isabelle has shown us on her first week on earth...
