Meet baby Rudy! Kellie Bright and Paul Stocker introduce new addition to their family

Meet baby Rudy! Kellie Bright and Paul Stocker introduce new addition to their family | Name News | Scoop.it
Joy was my nana’s name and I said that whether we had a boy or a girl, I would really like the middle name to be Joy as she meant such a lot to me. We weren’t sold on Rudy until about a week before I had him, but it’s been on my boys’ list for a while and was definitely around when I had Gene. All the girls’ names I really like, my husband didn’t! If he’d been a girl he probably would have been Robyn Joy.
