Chapter 616: The Names of 18 Children
"So you changed Eldie's name to Sunny?" Ivy's eyebrows furrowed slightly.
The name isn't particularly pleasant, but it's not awful either, just average.
"Mhm!" Alexander nodded.
Ivy pondered for a moment and said, "Firstie, Doubler, Tripler, Qualer, these names sound nice. And with names corresponding to their birth order, it will be easy to distinguish who is the eldest and who is the fourth. As for the fifth and sixth, we don't necessarily have to follow the birth order. We can call them Qian Qian, Duo Duo, Miao Miao..."
"Do you think Waterlin sounds nice?" Alexander clapped his hands excitedly and said, "I also think Waterlin sounds nice! So, I've given up on the names we previously chose. Eldie is now Sunny, Secondie is now Metalin, Thirdie is now Fores, Forthie is now Waterlin, Fifthie is now Flamein, and Sixie is now Yao Yao..."
Alexander became more and more excited as he spoke, enthusiastically explaining, "Sunny, which is made up of three sun characters, represents the sun. Everything in the world cannot exist without sunlight, just like the five younger sisters cannot exist without their older sister. And the names of the five younger sisters: Metalin, Fores, Waterlin, Flamein, and Yao Yao, are all combinations of the characters for gold, wood, water, fire, and earth. Not only do they have good implications, but they also sound pleasant.
Choosing names like this for our six daughters represents the sun, gold, wood, water, fire, and earth. What wonderful implications, Ivy, don't you think?"
Ivy said, "..."
What is there to agree with? She doesn't feel the same as Alexander.
Unconsciously, she looked at the household registration book again.
"Foster Sunny... if you like it, then it's fine. I hope the children also like it," Ivy helplessly said.
Something just doesn't feel right.
Ivy repeated the name a few more times and finally figured out why.
"You didn't change the children's last name as well?"
Alexander nodded, "They already have your last name. I was afraid that if I changed it, you would be unhappy."
Ivy pouted, "Are you afraid that I would be unhappy, or do you not believe that they are your children?"
"Ivy..."
Why does this woman overthink so much?
Alexander quickly hugged Ivy and gently said, "Many women want their children to have their own last name. I thought you were the same, so I continued to let them have the Foster surname. If you really don't mind the issue of the last name, I'll change it tomorrow. I actually want the children to have my last name..."
"No, no, it's fine like this. It's good!" Ivy happily made up her mind.
Continuing to read, on the seventh page, the second daughter of the household: Foster Metalin.
On the eighth page, the third daughter of the household: Foster Fores.
On the ninth page, the fourth daughter of the household: Foster Waterlin.
On the tenth page...
The fifth daughter of the household: Foster Flamein.
On page 11, the sixth daughter of the household: Foster Yaoyaon.
So Alexander actually chose that!
Well, since the matter is settled, what else does she have to say?
Alexander suggested, "Ivy, from now on, let's not call the six daughters EldieSecondieThirdieForthieFifthieSixie anymore. It sounds a bit plain and the meaning is not that good..."
Ivy lifted her head and stared at Alexander's handsome face for a while, then nodded decisively, "Okay!"
Since it's already been decided, what else can she do?
