For personal privacy, Denny and I are going to set up a password-protected site with Miles photos and updates.  I’ll let you know information on that when we get around to it.  In the meantime, thanks to everyone.  Thanks especially to Angie for the great spread of food she brought by yesterday.  We grazed on that all evening (and if I hadn’t already polished off the cake, it would have been breakfast).

    I like it. Not too common and with solid history behind it. He will do great things. Congrats on the baby and his cool moniker.

  2. Damon says:

    What a beautiful baby boy and a terrific name.

    Congratulations!

    Never forget to enjoy every second you have with your baby. It is truly a blessing, although it doesn’t always feel that way.

    Congrats on choosing a name and on a beautiful little boy. Glad things are going so well!

    Great name! “Miles” is my youngest stepson’s name and I love it — distinctive, without being too weird. Great photo as well.

  7. Katy Baggs says:

    A Google search for it leads back here, so far, so good.

    Also, what a cute baby! I like this kid. I like the cut of his jib. He’s a’ight!

  8. Crystal says:

    Strong name, and I love how you were able to incorporate your family’s name, Aprille.
    Although, Miles, I must say, you’ll still be Bisquito somewhere in my mind. Welcome welcome!

  9. Nancy says:

    He is so beautiful Aprille. I love his name. It suits him very well. Congrats once again and here is to the beginning of the most amazing journey you will ever know, motherhood.

  10. Linds says:

    It’s a great name, because if he wants to be a rapper he can just go by M.C. Crall. Or if he is a rapping prodigy, M.C. Crawl.

  11. Suzanne says:

    Nice, strong, English name! It’s okay that it beat out Oswald. Love to you all in your cozy nest!

    big ups M.C. crawlah! boo-yah!

  13. jack says:

    Yay naming convention! Daphne Winn Pinette approves.

    OMG one letter different and they’d both be characters on Frasier.

    Best,
    Jack

    The news has reached Southern California via Grandma Crall! Thanks Cheryl! Congratulations! I’m glad to hear Miles is healthy and that you & Denny are doing well. I can’t wait to meet the little guy!

    Take care,
    Carrie

    Great name guys and fun initials to have. Although I have lay claim to “MC Crall” (Linds/comment 10); , my crazy friend Deirdre calls me MC Crall.

  16. Martie says:

    He is just so beautiful! And I love his name!!

  17. Killian says:

    Aprille, he is just gorgeous. And his name is perfect. Congratulations to all 3 of you!

  18. Audra says:

    You know me and my crazy about people naming their kids.

    Thank goodness you and Denny are cool enough to pick a kickass name *hee*

    It’s great and I am so so happy for you guys. Again, Congrats!

  19. Kristin says:

    Holy crap, this is what I get for not checking your blog for a while. Congratulations to you all!

    He’s got that sweet newborn ‘worried brow’ look. So cute. Lovely photo!

  21. Aimee says:

    This is a gorgeous picture of him. Fantastic name choice. I am disappointed at the lack of unnecessary letters though 🙂

  22. Mark says:

    Our son is named Miles too.

  23. Congrats, you three. Miles it is, then. Huzzah! Fantastic pic, Denny.
