Pronounced "eev." It's the male spelling of Eve. So he is named after two French saints.

St. Yves, [url="http://www.newadvent.org/cathen/08256b.htm"]according to the Catholic Encyclopedia[/url], was a civil lawyer and a canonist. He displayed great zeal and rectitude in the discharge of his duty and did not hesitate to resist the unjust taxation of the king, which he considered an encroachment on the rights of the Church; by his charity he gained the title of advocate and patron of the poor.

And [url="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ivo_of_Kermartin"]according to wikipedia[/url], he is the patron of lawyers, though not their model because, as the inscription on his tomb reads: "Sanctus Ivo erat Brito, Advocatus et non latro, Res miranda populo." Roughly translated, this means: "St Ives was Breton/ A lawyer and not a thief/ Marvelous thing to the people." Literally translated, it is a quip that refers to the fact that lawyers have a reputation for thievery.

And then of course,[url="http://www.newadvent.org/cathen/09368a.htm"] Saint Louis[/url] who was King Louis IX of France.

Why am I not suprised? :rolleyes:

:topsy:


You should name him something really unusual. Like "Ahmed" or "Alyosha", you know, to confuse people :detective:

I think it'd be funny :unsure:

If I had a kid and still not religious at the time I think I'd name him something odd like "Muhammad" (seriously? white non-muslim kid name Muhammad wouldn't be just super funny?) or "Borat".

Perhaps "Sue".

It seemed to work out fine in the Cash song :unsure:



But seriously, congradulations! :D


p.s. 9 kids? Good lord, you are Catholic :rolleyes:
