" Holiday cards are one of my favorite things about the holidays. I usually shop for them online, but you can imagine my excitement when I found Shutterfly and TinyPrints catalogs sitting on the kitchen table.

Clare's insight:
Caetana was only given to 36 girls in Portugal in 2012, but that was enough to place it just below the top 100. It's not a that would automatically spring to mind, but FIlipa thinks it could appeal to parents who are looking for a "more exclusive" alternative to Constança or Carlota. Lovely name!

Daniel, Spaniens Lieblingsjungenname des Geburtsjahrgangs 2012, kommt in Deutschland langsam aus der Mode. Lucía, die Nummer eins bei den Mädchennamen, ist bei uns (noch?) kein sehr häufiger Name.
