Wow, That's a Mouthful

We gave Evan a really long name. Not to torture him, but to honor his heritage - He's half Japanese, three-eighths Chinese and one-eighth Hawaiian. So he was given THREE middle names. :) Last week Evan started saying parts of his middle name, so we started talking about his full name.

When people used to ask what his name was, he would say, "Evan." Then he learned his last name and started saying both names. They'd look at me questioningly and I'd say, "His name is Evan. He's giving you his last name, too." Now that Evan knows his full name, he will spout off the whole thing when people ask what his name is. And the usual reply is, "Wow, that's a mouthful!"
