So we knew when reviewing Norwegian names to complement the Halvorson surname, we had a challenge on our hands. There isn't the most poetic combination of syllables in Scandinavian monikers. Erik was happy to fall on the name Anders and seemed to have a penchant for it from the start.
Me: "I do like it but you realize the kid will have to correct people the rest of his life."
E: "I have to do it all the time by saying 'Erik with a K'. He needs something like that, too."
Me: "Hmm."
So that is the origination of the name - no major stories. It's kinda' how we just liked the sound of the name Landon. Everyday we see them both becoming their own beings, adopting their own personalities and growing into their own names. So it's a perfect fit.
Now if I could just break the habit of calling Anders "Piglet"...

But he's such a cute Piglet! Congratulations on becoming a multimom!!! I look forward to reading about the balance. Also, perhaps Landon deserves the post, "It's LANNdon, not LAHNdon"? :-P
I think his name! I have to correct people all the time about my name but it's worth it. I like that it's different and I'm sure he will too! Gives him character.
