Naming the babe...and picking his birthday.

...since I am due in August, and I get to pick a day for my scheduled c/s, I have been thinking about what day to have him born. Granted, I know that it might change due to my medical issues, but if not, I can have him the first week in August.

We are naming him after DH's best friends, one from high school and one from our last base. Both of them committed suicide; I know it is bleak-sounding, but he wants to bring positive thoughts to the names instead of all the pain that they caused.

DH's best friend committed suicide last year on August 6th. Would it be wrong of me to perhaps try that date? Ironically enough, he is due on the anniversary of my grandfather's death in the first place...it seems this baby is destined to be born on some day that is significant???
