We have a ...hum hum... few names for Evelyn around here.
Her full given name is Evelyn Elaine Fu Mei Dillon.
Evelyn is her very own name picked out by Leslie and I.
Elaine is after her Aunt Melissa (Melissa Elaine) who is named after our Aunt Tanya (Tanya Elaine)
Fu Mei is her Chinese name, given to her in China. Fu Mei means Lucky Plum. (pronounced foo may)
As if that isn't enough, we have added a few more monikers into the mix, mostly these are nicknames or a once in awhile kind of name. Some of them are for specific times(you know, like Hungry Pete-for when she's hungry). Here goes:
