Baby Names

Since I've had some people question where we came up with the names for the girls, I decided to post about it.
Arianna Jo - we knew we were having a girl before we decided on names for her. I saw the name Arianna on a baby naming website and we agreed on it right away. Jo is after Scott's dad Joseph who died a month after we were married. *In case* we had a boy we picked Dillion Scott as a back up.
Talia Jae - this was a bit harder to agree on. We had lots of names we liked, but decided that since Arianna was named after Scott's dad, our second would be named after Jaime's. Jaime's family also has all "J's" (James, Janet, Jaime and Jesseca) in it and after further thought, Scott's family also had "J's" (Joseph, Scott John and Brian Joseph) so we decided to carry that on with our kids. We were not 100% sure of the baby's sex after 2 ultrasounds but were pretty sure we were having a girl. Jaime also wanted to end our girl babies' names with "A" in honor of her maiden name Ammon. We heard the name Talia from Scott's good friend that he had while Active Duty in North Carolina who's wife's name was Talia. When she was born she definatly looked like a Talia and we were glad we chose that. We picked Jae for an alternative to James (since Jaime was already taken!). Nolan James was the boy choice.
Danica Jace - Jaime liked the name Danica when she first heard of Danica McKeller on the TV show "The Wonder Years" as a kid. Scott wasn't too keen on the name at first, but since we thought we would be having a boy this time, he agreed on it as the "girl" name. The boy's name Scott picked was Jensen Scott. After we found out 100% that we were having a girl (since boys don't have ovaries), we decided to stay with Danica since it was the only name we could really agree on. Scott right away wanted her nickname to be "Dani." At first, we thought about Jon for a middle name after both of our grandfathers, but there are already alot of John's on both sides, so we thought of who else we would like to honor. Jaime is close with her oldest cousin Jason, and since he has no kids of his own we both agreed to name our daughter after him, and came up with Jace.
We hope you enjoyed learning of the meanings behind our daughters's names. Family means alot to us and we hope we have honored the important people in our lives by naming our daughters after them.
