Ginger Teh?

October 24th, 2008 -- Posted in nita | No Comments »

To be honest, I’ve not started thinking of a name for the baby. Aitim is just a temporary unisex name before we know the sex. We wanted a name that will be easy for both Singaporean and Thai environment. I thought a Thai name will be unique but the trend among young Thai families these days is to adopt Japanese sounding names that has absolutely no meaning.

Becky has voted for the name ‘Ginger’... and when coupled with the family name, it’d be a cute english translation of ‘teh halia’. That’s cute, sis… but I’d want to avoid the kid being teased in the original Malayu version.

Chinese name aside (I’d let my dad choose a good chinese name to go with the ancestral generation poem), my thought will be something long yet can be shorten as a nickname for our Thai relatives too. Let me put on my thinking cap for a bit and update when I think of some. ;)

Oh yeah… I picked up my new Oakley on Monday. I love the sleek matte black surface and the neo-classic look. Annie said it looks so emo. What do you think?

This 4D scan was taken in Bangkok. We made a short trip to visit Sunsun’s mom, who was hospitalized for a heart complication and lung infection. She’s better now and ready to head home.
