[quote=Anonymous]My SIL and I were both pregnant, and due a few days apart, when my MIL was dying of cancer. DH and his sister both wanted to honor her. So we talked. We agreed that if we both had girls, we'd handle it one way, and if we both had boys, we'd handle it another. In the end, we had one of each and both kids are named for her in different ways. She's gone on to have other children, while this was my youngest. For the other kids, she didn't share names, but I'm really glad that in that case we did talk. For her youngest, there was a name on her list that was one of many. It also happened to be the name of our other SIL's beloved grandmother. She asked SIL if they might want to use that name, and when SIL said yes, she chose a different name. Or would have, this was early in the pregnancy and she ended up having a boy. [/quote]
