The Breakdown:Ethan: Hebrew in origin. Means one who is firm and steadfast. Casey and I decided for sure on this name when I admitted to him that out of the 10 or so names on our final list that this was my secret favorite. And then he said it was his secret favorite too.
Joseph: Also Hebrew in origin. Means God will increase. This name is the long form of Casey's middle name and his grandfather's middle name: Joe.
We're so excited to have the name picked out. It's amazing how much more of a person he seems now that he's got a name!

I love it! What a wonderful name... you both did really well in selecting it! I can't wait to meet baby Ethan in person!
How exciting! Thanks for telling us, Rachel! I love the name! And I can't wait to meet him!
Love it! I like that both of the names you chose are Hebrew.
I thought you were going to make us wait until after he arrived!!!
This is a pleasant surprise to find out early!
Like everyone above, I love his name! That's cute that you and Casey both secretly wanted the same name.
I love it!!
It's perfect.
(side note: my word verification is "ethajsf," how appropriate!)
Great choice!! Y'all are so cute with your secret favorites:)
I love that name! I really like the meaning of it as well. Now the wait is on for putting a face with the name!!!!!!!
I love Ethan also. Thanks for sharing - Blake and Ethan will be best buds. :)
Beautiful name, Rachel! Such a special meaning, too. I can't wait for pictures!
I told Heather also, I'm having a joint baby shower for Ethan and Kenna at my house. Let me know when you can come to Florida! :-)
