I always get a odd reaction when people ask me what my daughters name is. "Frances?" they say waiting for some kind of explanation. Frances is the name of my grandmother on my mother's side or Nana as I have always called her. I also like the classic feel of Frances and names that can be used for a boy or girl . We tossed around a few names but Frances was always at the top of the list. One important thing for me in choosing a name were the nick names she would get. Here is what family and friends have been calling her so far, Frances, Fran, Franny, Fran-chan, Franny-chan, Frankie (my favourite), Francine, and yes even Franco (not a fan of that one). There is not much of a story behind the name Shiori, just sounds cute.

In an effort to not let this turn into a dedicated baby site I have set up an album of baby photos. Those needing their daily fix of Frankie can check it out.
