What's In a Name

Adelynd Katherine Hayes: Lets break it down......


Adelynd
An odd name by most standards. Named after her grandfather, Lynd Kevin Mische. Technically a silent "d", it adds a uniqueness fitting of the man. We can already see that Addy has inherited her grandfather's dry sense of humor, intelligence, long monkey arms and the affinity to get the hiccups.

Katherine
A traditional name donated by her grandmother, Sarah Katherine Hayes. Fitting of the name, Grandma is already filling the traditional role of the spoiler. Addy has a clean house, painted nursery, clothes that will last until age 4 and more stuff than will ever fit in our tiny little bungalow.

Hayes
An Irish name through and through. Addy has quite a clan waiting for her out there. She has a couple villages/towns named after her across the water with a wide array of family members, most of whom have avoided major jail time. Look for her in the parade next year.
