Liam

Yesterday was our baby's Brit. It's the most nerve-wrecking thing for a mom!! I was literally horrified during the service, but Baby did fine and didn't even cry so much. He was named Liam Baruch Bodoff. The first name Laim was suggested by Christine, my dear friend. Liam works both in English (Gaelic?) and Hebrew. In Gaelic, it means "protector." In Hebrew, Liam means "To me people/nation."

For the longest time when he was in my womb, David and I thought Harry would be a good name for our cute little baby to come. When he came out, though, we realized we needed to give him a more serious name. He looked so serious! We also wanted to give him a name that is usable both internationally and Hebrew-wise. Liam works just great for all these aspects.
