We’ve recently welcomed a baby into our home as a foster baby. She came to us as a 4 day old and she is now 2 months. The program in our area is such that babies like her go into foster care, for various reasons, and CAS goes to court for permanent guardianship. Once that is granted the baby goes for adoption and in this case we will be the adoptive parents. That way there is no movement from home to time prior to adoption and she gets a chance to bond from the start with her new family.

This little one was given the name Brooke-Lynn by her bio mother. Both my wife and I love Brooke because it has a connection to my family but the whole Brooke-Lynn, Brooklyn, Brooke Lynn combo is a non starter for us.
We are going to keep the Brooke part of her current name but as part of the adoption process we are going to give her the middle name of Kendell.
How does Brooke Kendell sound as a name?
