Not to go against the crowd here, but I'm not going to suggest my own name. Tim Capps would be a terrible name.

We appreciate your concern. It is noted and stupid.

Ceremony went well, went to lunch with the combined parents, collectively rolled eyes as the fathers suddenly found out they both served on the same army base, grew up not too far from each other, shared car interests, etc. We're doomed.
Currently at a nice hotel in downtown Portland. Discovered that Kobe Beef is tasty but a little overrated.
On the topic of names... I have an Uncle Buster. As in, given name, Buster. Previous names used on my dad's side of the family include Valentine and Noah Flood. Seems I'm related to the other Charles Capps by blood. Yay genealogy.

Just thinking... there aren't many online communities who can say they've been conversing for over 10 years. Actually it's more like 12 now?? Isn't it??

Actually, we're pretty much settled on Wesley at this point.
No, really. Well, that or Justin, but I'm not fully sold on that one.
See, girl names are easy. Stupidly easy. We had a dozen of them already picked out. Unfortunately we have diverging tastes on boy's names, and the list of names we both don't dislike became extremely short. The additional complication is that the middle name is going to be her father's name, Dale. What the hell goes with Dale?
There's a chance, a slim chance, that she might relent and allow him to be named Edward, as I'd prefer, but I doubt it. She's more stubborn than me.
Also, the wedding is on Saturday. We're doing a small civil ceremony in Portland.
I know a guy named Jesse Dale, but Go Edward!!
(being my name as it were)
