why you don't let the sibling name the baby...

Casper: "We should call him Trixie!"

(We've been reading Knuffle Bunny recently. Before that, she suggested "Baby Baby.")

mr. flea has just suggested Bernard. We may be getting silly.

Bernard! I have a late great-uncle Bernard who is remembered very fondly in my family, mainly because his sister Effie didn't approve of his lifestyle and so he got stuck out in a corner of the cemetery when he died. We have to hunt him down and dig him out from under grapevines every year on Memorial Day. Good old Uncle Bernie.

I suppose "was kind of a lush and was ejected from the family plot by his crazy sister" isn't much of a selling point for the name, is it?
