Like my daughters name? It's Laina. Her middle name is Teresa.

I haven't meant anybody with the name. We had to pick something with an L (SO is Jewish and tradition says you name the newborn after the recently deceased). His grandfathers name was Leonard so we had to go through every book, website, etc to try to find a girls name that started with an L that we liked. We didn't even figure out a name til three days after she was born and it clicked.
