You and your husband were college DJs. One night while doing your radio show, you listened to Donovan's "Mellow Yellow" and decided that Saffron was the perfect name for your future daughter. Fast forward 20 years and Saffron has risen above her hippie roots and is president of the College Republicans and goes by "Saffy" because she is sick and tired of being named after a spice. As for Ian, you will never tell him he was named after a hopping flutist because he was conceived backstage at a Jethro Tull concert. He is happily oblivious as an analyst at the Heritage Foundation.

Growing up, you had Golden Retrievers named Lucy and Molly from the same litter. You never quite recovered after your father told you that they went to live on a farm.

As an anglophile tween, you wanted to be the youngest of the Mitford sisters. You are trying for another daughter and will call her Pamela. If it is a boy, you will name him Peter but will call him "Boy".

Jake always wonders why his name isn't Jacob. Your name is Tammy or Melissa.

LOL...Jake's name actually is "Jacob" but he decided in 1st grade that he wanted to be "Jake"

The terror of the cul de sac. DH riles them up at bedtime and then wonders why you are mad. You spend your days dreaming of a sweet baby girl named Daphne. Maybe you could afford one of those fancy embryo-sorting gender selection procedure things if those damn boys would just stop breaking things.

The younger two are typical boys tearing it up (though in our backyard, no culdesac). The oldest is a girl and she's definitely sweet but lots of drama. Thought I'd leave their gender out of the initial post.
