People can and will make fun of almost any name. My husband wanted a teasing-proof name: Delilah? "If she's chubby, they'll call her Deli." Drake, after Sir Francis Drake, an ancestor of mine who was a privateer, some say pirate. "They'll call him a butt pirate. Not that there's anything wrong with that."
So I chose the name, although Desi is a slang term for individuals of Indian descent (the country, not the one whose country we snagged). For me, the name is a short form of a poem that I love, a father's advice to his child, "Desiderata." It means "desired things" in Latin, and she was debated for a decade before we decided to have her.
Desi Alexandra Love Edwards was born on Dec. 19. I think she may be our one and only experiment with procreating, but I'm saving Drake for a boy if we decide to go down this road again...
Congrats, Limewave, and hope Bear arrives with a roar!

Oh, and I like both names, Bear and Sage.
