Go right ahead and call me jealous of Kristen Bell today. Not because she's witty, adorable, and married to the comical Dax Shepard, but because she's found it easy to choose her kids' names.
"I believe it's our first [carpet since giving birth]," the mother of Lincoln and Delta remarked to E! News at Wednesday night's People's Choice Awards. "I'm in a sleepy, sleepy daze so I'm not positive where I am right now."
Chiming in on having welcomed their second daughter three weeks ago the actor added, "In theory it gets easier because you go through the rough time at once and then it's on auto-pilot. That's what we've been told and we're counting on it."
We? Clarifying, Kristen interjected: "It's the same amount of work because it's another baby."
Although she may not agree with Dax on that one point, Kristen Bell gives him all the credit for coming up with their girls' unique names.
"It's Dax. He keeps picking these awesome names," she went on to explain. "He threw Delta out there and we just knew."
The envy! Oh, how I wish I'd known with such certainty what my kids should be called.
In actuality, our boys got their names through a long process of one parent tossing out 'How about ____ ?' and the other replying, 'Meh. It's OK, I guess.' We poured over hefty baby name books but not a single thing sparked the coveted 'that's it!' feeling. In the end we like the names we ended up choosing alright, but I wish we'd had that zing moment and felt absolutely sure of our picks.
Did you 'just know' what your kids' names should be, or was it a struggle to pick?
