Esme’s Name
We spent a long time thinking about names, but there was one name that was on every short list: Esme. We’re pronouncing this “Es as in ‘Pez’” and “me as in ‘you and me’”. There is an old French version with an accent and a different pronunciation, but apparently neither version is very popular anywhere at present, which is another advantage. The name’s history isn’t well known. Mostly, we just really like this name.
