I have a home, but I need a name....

Well I'm really reaching here for something to post.....We have this darling giraffe, from Africa, that our friends the Brocks gave to us. He stands proudly in our home and Randy thought he needed just a little more class, so he gave the little guy one of his very own bow ties. Now I seem to think the giraffe needs a name. I know I have SO many people watching my blog, I am sure I will be overwhelmed with suggestions!!! Can't wait!! Get those names sent in now!!

hahahaha oh man that bow tie REALLY makes that giraffe way cooler. way to go dad! well i am pretty good at naming. i named my pound puppy marshall got me penelope, marshalls shark tattoo on his hand charles, the shark chomper i got marshall in california is jerry, the stuffed shark marshall won me at lagoon is peter, and the frog i recently got for valentines day is phillip. i also gave randy his middle name, bernard. as you can see, i am very good at naming. i will give you some suggestions:

-landon: meaning is "long", i thought this was appropriate cause of the long neck.

-langford: same as landon, i think i prefer this.

-grant: french rooted name meaning tall. may go good with giraffe: both Gs

-dalmar: african rooted, since he is from africa. means versitile and adaptable..since he is adapting to your living room.

-jabulani: also from africa, crates a cute alliteration with the word giraffe.. and means "come to bring happiness to everybody" wow i really like this one. Pronunciation:(jah boo LAH nee)

ok well i have to stop researching names for your wooden giraffe from africa now, or i will be late for the movie. i am meeting marshall at the gateway to see definitely maybe, so i hope i like it. if not, i am using the free passes you got me for xmas so it is not a loss! let those names sink in and let me know what you think! loves
