Name Game

Hey everyone! Sorry for the sporadic posts. I'm finally feeling better, so I've been out trying to make up for missing out on the majority of the summer. I also start school Wednesday, so I'm not sure what that'll mean for updates.

Anyway, I figured I would make a post explaining Cherry's name. Recently I had someone ask me about it and I was able to dig up the inspiration for it. So here goes:

Before we even got Cherry, I had TONS of names picked out. I don't have the list anymore, but I was looking for a nature themed name. Lots of them were herbs and such. Mint was probably one of them.

When we got Cherry, I don't think I decided to think up names for a few hours. I was too excited about having a new pet. Her shelter name was 'Happy' and I definitely knew that name would have to go. I went through my list of names and none of them fit. My mom wanted me to name her 'Popcorn' so that we could call her 'Poppy', but that didn't fit either.

Later on I was looking around online and came across this beautiful picture. The name 'Cherry' immediately popped into my head. In that instant I knew that it was perfect for her. It's hard to explain, but the name just fit with her.

I mean how could that name not fit?
