So I got a little curious on what names we considered naming Brody. I went in search of this little pittiful baby name book that Mike and I got while taking a tour of St. Mary's Hospital back in 2005.
These were the alternatives for Broderick Michael:
- Abner
- Austin
- Avery
- Baily
- Baxter
- Benjamin
- Brady
- Broderick
- Burke
- Carter
- Clayton
- Drew
- Eiden
- Elijah
- Ewen
- Finley
- Fuller
- Garret
- Gavan/Gavin
- Haddan/Hadden/Haddon
- HAuk
- Ilias
- Jacob
- Jonathan
- Kiley
- Lyndon
- Maddy
- Michael
- Nash
- Nate
- Nathan
- Nathaniel
- Neal
- Owen
- Page
- Payton
- Price
- Reed
- Sam
- Shep
- Sonny
- Stanley
- Taylor
- Val
- Van
Only a few names made it past the original picking, which were:
- Brady
- Clayton
So how did we get Broderick if it wasn't even in our last two names? Easy! There was no way in this world that I was going to walk around singing the Brady Bunch theme song when I called my sons name. I gave into Mike on the middle name Michael so he gave in on the first name Broderick. I can't picture my little devil being called anything else.
