The Truth About Those Baby Names

We've gotten a lot of questions about how we chose our babies names. The answer: Erin and I were taking a stroll in our favorite San Francisco neighborhood a few months ago, when we happened across two alleys. The alleys were charming and uniquely San Francisco - something we hope both our babies grow up to be - and what's more, we really liked the way the names of the cross streets sounded together. Here they are:






I'm kiiiiding. These two awesome photos - with some creative editing - were a present from Uncle Roobz. He actually delivered two beautiful prints of these photos this evening. We can't wait to get them framed and hung in Brett and Mag's room. Thanks Roobz.

  1. Great story! Love those babies and their names. Um, I know I'm not the only one (OK, maybe I am) but I bought it hook, line and sinker. I was ready to start searching out those alleys. Sure beats Albion and Lapidge. But, Clarion and Dore are pretty cute. Maybe the next two?

  3. Or the intersection of Fillmore and Bush... my personal favorite. "Oh Hi! I'd like to introduce you to my son Fillmore Bush Berthiaume. And this is his sister, Beaver Belcher Berthiaume."

    Liz - Erin MADE me reveal the joke at the end of this post. Otherwise, I totally would have had you wandering the streets of SF ;-)
