What's in a name?
After months of debating what we should name our baby-boy-to-be, here is what we came up with!
First name: Maximilian, meaning "the greatest". This is also the name of my husband's patron saint.
Middle name: Dusan (Serbian name with the caret "v" over the 's,' pronounced "Dushan") was the name of my wonderful paternal grandfather. Dusan is a derivative of the Serbian word dusa (with a "v" over the "s"), pronounced "dusha" which means soul or spirit. A little research revealed that Dan or Daniel ("God is my judge") is a commonly used version of Dusan. Other meanings associated with the Slavic name Dusan are: essence, lively, spirited, lord, and judge.
So when you put the the two names together you get "the greatest soul and spirit." :-)
What thoughts went into picking the name of your little angel?
