jedusorThe kid's got a name, people. Wait for it... waaaaiiiiit for it.... LINCOLN.
Lincoln Joshua Paul Sabin Gilliland. Dude, he matches me in middle names. *shakes fist*
They named him Lincoln for several reasons. It means "home by the pond," and he was born in our hot tub out back. Abraham Lincoln was arguably the greatest president this country has ever seen. Lincoln County is where his paternal grandfather lives. It's uncommon enough to satisfy my mom's needs, and recognizable enough to appease my stepdad. Annnnd.... it shortens to "Link." My brothers' names (Cordell and Clayton) shorten to useful objects (Cord and Clay). Also, it's the name of a character in the video game "Legend of Zelda," so my brothers are happy with it.
Joshua is my stepdad's best friend's name, and Paul is his father's. Sabin is a tribute to my mom's last name- it's not hyphenated, but it's there, like the rest of us.
Anyhoo. Cherries and fig-flavored chocolate to you all. *hugs*

......My god, that's a long name. That's...a large number of syllables.
