Stewart Little's Name Unveiled!

So for those of you who have not been playing the name game or have been but have not yet guessed it, we've decided now is a good time to unveil. Her name is Capri!

Ryan and I had a small list of names started in an excel spreadsheet. While there were some cute options, we really wanted a name that had meaning to us but we were struggling to find one that we thought would be suitable for a girl. As I was walking Boone one day listening to my iPod, the song "Capri" came on and it hit me. The song is about a baby girl named Capri. This was it! Ryan and I were married in Sorrento, Italy on the Amalfi Coast (six years ago this month). The Island of Capri is just off the coast of Sorrento. We spent a day there enjoying the quaint little island town, it's people and some very cool sights. I've posted the song on our blog as I thought it would only be appropriate with the unveiling of her name. The artist: Colbie Caillet. This is where the music clues came from. The fruity beverage of course would be Caprisun. Most of the other clues pertain specifically to the Island of Capri and/or the meaning behind Capri's name.

A quick note that we just realized was kind of funny and coincidental...Ryan's brother Jarrett stated to us, before he had guessed Capri's name from the name game clues, that he was just going to refer to her as "short pants" if he couldn't figure out her name. Funny thing is, he wasn't too far off!
