So we don’t know the baby’s gender yet, and have no clue about names. We’re doing some hunting, but need to find something that works well in both Norwegian and English. I’m sure we’ll find something nice, but think we’ll have to meet the little one first before we decide for sure.
I thought it’d be fun to post the top baby names of 2009 in both Norway and the USA.
