When you're me, it's a great idea to give your child a two-syllable name, because it works with tons of songs. Like,We love you Devyn, oh yes we do
We love you Devyn, and we'll be true
When you're not near us, we're blue
Oh Devyn, we love you!
(sung to the tune of "We Love You Conrad" from Bye Bye Birdie)
And
Who's tripping down the streets of the city
Smilin' at everybody she sees?
Who's reachin' out to capture a moment?
Everyone knows it's Devyn
(sung to the tune of "Windy" by The Association)
Those and "Good Morning" from Singin' in the Rain make up a lot of our repertoire at the moment.
i am very familiar with singing to creatures in one's household as much as possible. i can't imagine what it's going to be like when we have a baby, because we sing to the dogs, the guinea pig (constantly!), the cat, the rats, and less to the snake and fish (just because we don't think they appreciate it as much.) may i humbly suggest some more songs that work well with two syllable names?
