It might not be obvious where our new little guy's name comes from -- or even how to pronounce it.
"Iver" (rhymes with "diver") is a Scandinavian name and also a family name on KLC's side. Specifically, the name comes from KLC's mother's favorite uncle. We thought it was different enough not to have him end up "Iver W." in school, but not too unusual that he would have to spell/defend it for the rest of his life.
There's also a family connection for the middle name. My Uncle Ted was an important person in my mother's and our lives. It was also the name of KLC's great-grandather on her mother's side.
BTW, if you are a parent or caregiver of any sort and need a laugh, I highly recommend this book: http://shttymom.com I think the title speaks for itself.
