We now have a new official name for our baby.We did love the name
헤빈 Hae Byn,
헤빈 Hae Byn,
but when we realized that the baby's own grandma made fun of it we came to
the conclusion that many others would as well.
So now her name is......
손하진 Ha Jin
The name has a lot of meaning for us
하 (Ha) comes from the 하 in 하동 Ha Dong the wonderful village Boo was
born and grew up in. Boo and I both love Ha Dong, we are going to
buy some land in Ha Dong and
retire there.
The day we had our wedding party there.
One of the happiest days ever!

Boo and Puppy Juny Ju in front of Boo's dad's
grave.
The 진 (Jin) comes the 진 in 진주 Jin Ju.
Jin Ju is the town that Boo's family moved to
after they moved from Ha Dong. It is a small busy town that
never changes. Boo's mom still lives there.

Also as a nice coincident our Nieces names are
Yoe Jin
and Ha Bin so the name is also similar to theirs.

We are still brainstorming middle names
I like Haleiwa
after my favorite North Shore town in Hawaii
but Boo thinks it will sound strange.
We want the middle name to either represent a
city that has meaning or to represent someone with a
lot of character.
We are also thinking of Rosa
after Rosa Parks
Any other suggestions for Middle names?

So is Ha Jin pronounced Ha Gin? (like the drink)or Ha Jeen (like the clothing). Just want to make sure that I get it right. I think that I will have to side with Boo on the middle name. I do like Rosa, or maybe Rose, Mae, Aurora or Carly.
Sorry But Boo just vetoed Carly for the middle name! Her name is like the drink Gin...bottoms up!!
Scott suggests Oprah for the middle name.
How about:
Amelia (Earhart)
Winnie (Mandela)
Zora (Neal Hurston)
Eleanora/Eleanor (Roosevelt)
Isadora (Duncan)
Willa (Cather)
Sojourner (Truth)
Frida (Kahlo)
Ella (Fitzgerald)
And is Ha Jin pronounced as two separate words with a pause in between, or without a pause? We have to figure out how to say her name before she's born :)
cute name!!! I'm SO excited for y'all!!!
middle name: Laie ~ya know if you wanna go with the Hawaii theme
Alani is a Hawaiian name that means Orange or orange (that's what it said online)~i'm assuming the color or the fruit :P
What a great name, and what a great way to tie in sentimental places into it.
