The Name

Even before we know about Baby Chang is a boy, we started putting thoughts about his name. Our top choices name for baby girl were Francesca and Andrea and for baby boy, we have Carter and Aidan as our top 2 picks.

Since we didn't know about Baby Chang's gender by then, we had a deal about who gets name our first baby. The deal was if Baby Chang is a girl, I get to name her and if he's a boy, Ronnie will name him whatever he likes the most.

So, Baby Chang has a name right when we found out that he's a boy. Although it's not final , but for now, Baby Chang's name is~~~Carter.

Give us some feedback about what you think about the name, we are still researching on it. Thanks!!

Aidan is Irish. Carter is American. (well I never met a Carter in the UK or Ireland, but I met a few Aidans).

I can't pernounce Aidan, and Carter is easier to me. By the way, the first idea of Carter is that maybe baby Chang will be a president.

oh ...shoulda said my ex-boss is an Aidan (from Liverpool). He tells me he did not meet another Brit Aidan until he age 34. But he meet many on holiday in Ireland. (I like the comment about Carter will be a president)

Dear Claire,
You are right. One of the reasons that Ronnie wants to name Baby Chang Carter is the name sounds strong and tough, and he said it sounds like a CEO's name. HAHA~~

Hi Clive,

Happy new year~~
Thanks for visiting Baby Chang's site. Since you had a boss named Aidan, I guess it's not a bad name for career too.

Carter is a common English name and can be a given name or surname. The name is derived from the occupation carter, a person who carries things in a cart. It is also used to refer to someone who is lucky at cards and lucky in love. (Wikipedia)

Aidan is an Irish Gaelic name, a diminutive of Aodh and usually translated into English as "little fiery one" or similar. Formerly common only in Ireland, the name (together with variants) has become extremely popular in the United Kingdom and United States of America. Aidan is currently the 54th most popular name in the United States since the start of the year 2000, bestowed on over 54,000 boys. Wikipedia
