Baby 1500 (almost)

Ask the Readers is taking a break for the rest of the year. Today, I have something else for you.

I greatly enjoy being a part of the personal finance community. Interacting with others that share similar dreams is loads of fun. You are all awesome.

Baby 1500

I am also happy to call many other bloggers my friends. Behind closed doors, we call our little community Blog Club. Like any club, Blog Club has rules*. I can’t tell you what most of them are, but one that I can share is this:

If your child is born on the birthday of a blogger friend, you must name your child after him or her**.

My birthday is at the end of November, so you can imagine my delight when Mrs. Frugalwoods let me know that Babywoods was due at the end of the same month! I fully admit that “Mr. 1500” is a name unfit for anyone except a James Bond villain, so I came up with some alternatives including:

• Fiftina
• Fifteenhundretta
• 1500a

Beautiful, right?

As fate would have it, Babywoods was born very close, but not on my birthday. I was deeply disappointed.

As a consolation prize, the Frugalwoods were kind enough to let me write a guest post! I guarantee that is has nothing to do with baby names or 3rd rate James Bond villains, so click your mouse over to Frugalwoods and check it out!

Also, don’t forget to wish The Frugalwoods well with their new addition. Congratulations! You are going to be awesome parents.

*The first rule of Blog Club is: You do not talk about Blog Club!

**Yeah, I totally just made that up. We have no rules***.

***Except for the one that states you must show up with gifts of beer.
