...with apologies to Wally Lamb, whose book by the same title I haven't read - but my husband was reading it at around the same time I started this blog, and it seemed appropriate...

Her name is...

Eloise Kathleen Sanping Warren.  We will call her Ellie.

My grandmother's name was Eloise.  It also happens to be a variation of "Louise", which is the name of a wonderful saint - Louise de Marillac.  You can read more about St. Louise here...  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Louise_de_Marillac

Both of Ellie's grandmothers are named Kathleen, conveniently spelled the same way.  :)  Hard to pass that up.  And of course "Sanping" is a combination of her two Chinese given names, which is how Chinese folks often write their given names when they are living or working in an English-language setting.

Okay.  One step closer...
