Baby Name

I haven't really announced the new baby's name. Some friends and family already know the name, but here it is:

Ian Asher Fuentes

I guess I really wanted Asher as the first name, but I let Juan pick the first name this time around.

HERE IS SOME INFO ON THE NAMES -

IAN
Origin: Hebrew or Gaelic

Meaning: God is forgiving

Pronunciation: (EE an)

Form of: John
(Juan was excited to hear this because his name in English is John).

Used in: English speaking countries

Additional info: Ian is a modern Scottish form of the name John. It was not used in Scotland until the late nineteenth century, though it has since become quite popular throughout the English-speaking world.
