What's in a name?


I am pretty sure that we are going with the name Abby. (Keep voting though!) Here are some fun facts that I found on the internet about the name "Abby".

Meaning:Diminutive of Abigail: Father rejoiced, or father's joy. Gives joy. The intelligent, beautiful Abigail was Old Testament King David's third wife, described as 'good in discretion and beautiful in form'.

Other common characteristics:People with this name tend to be creative and excellent at expressing themselves. They are drawn to the arts, and often enjoy life immensely. They are often the center of attention, and enjoy careers that put them in the limelight. They tend to become involved in many different activities, and are sometimes reckless with both their energies and with money.
