We didn't do this prior to choosing the name, but it was satisfying to find the meanings of her name being so very very positive: Princess, Merry, Wonderful, Beautiful to look upon, Extraordinary, To be admired, Wonder - there are others but I like these the best :)

How great to already have a name picked out! I was still going back and forth about Donovan right up till he was born, even though we were basically 99% decided on it. How cute that he and his cousin will share a middle name!
Someone, I think it was Cristina, recently told me she'd looked up the meanings for Donovan's name, and I forget which is which but for "Donovan" and "Lee" apparently one means warrior or fighter and the other means peaceful or something similar, and how funny that his name balances him out. ; )
The middle name 'Lee' actually came from a funny little coincidence and desire to create a new 'tradition' on Laura's side. Both of Laura's grandmother's middle names are also Laura's... and both Mira's grandmothers middle names are "Lee".
Awesome that Donovan's middle name is also Lee - how did you pick it?
Well we actually did something similar. Donovan and Lee are each of his grandmothers' maiden/last names. So together they have nice symbolism, as well as flowing well together. =)
