Here's Lily everyone! Thanks for all the love. :)
"Ginny?"
"Yeah, Harry?"
"Do you think we should try to pick a name?"
"_"
"Gin? What's that look for?"
"I'm sorry, what did you say?"
"Should we pick a name?"
"So I didn't hear you wrong."
"No, you heard me correctly."
"Sorry, I just never thought I'd see the day when Harry Potter is willing to sit down and pick a name for his child before it's actually born."
"I just thought it would be nice to pick a name."
"Oh, I know what this is about."
"You do?"
"You're excited to have a girl."
"Well…"
"Aha! I knew it. You're goofy expression says it all."
"Okay, maybe I am. I can't help it Ginny. You see Ron with Rose; I want a little girl too."
"What about James and Al?"
"I love them, they're my boys; strapping young men to follow in my footsteps."
"Goody…"
"Sarcasm doesn't suit you, dear."
"Shut up."
"Anyways; I want a little girl! Someone to choose me over you! Let's face it, honey, James is a 'mamma's boy' and Al… well he's neutral. I need one to be on my side!"
"And you think our daughter would be."
"Haven't you heard the term 'daddy's girl'?"
"That's not always the case, you know."
"Shut up."
"Oh Harry. I'm just teasing you. Fine, let's talk names. What did you have in mind?"
"Nymphadora."
"_"
"You're speechless. I knew it was perfect."
"Uh… Harry, I actually don't really… um… like it very much."
"_"
"Now, don't be like that! It's a very pretty name. But it's a mouthful and even Tonks didn't like it!"
"Fine. What did you have in mind?"
"Luna… Harry, that smile is creeping me out."
"It's nice, Ginny, but…"
"But?"
"Don't you think it would be a better middle name? I mean, what if people call her 'loony'?"
"Maybe you're right."
"So her middle name will be Luna."
"Do you have any other ideas?"
"Bethany."
"Eh."
"Beyonce."
"Harry!"
"Sorry."
"I think Julianna is pretty."
"I like it, but not enough. Common, Ginny, we can think of something. We're geniuses."
"Maybe we should call Hermione."
"Haha."
"What about Forty-two?"
"Forty-two?"
"The amount of weight I've gained."
"In that case, how about Nine?"
"As in…"
"The amount of times you've made me sleep on the couch."
"We can make that ten, you know."
"I'm kidding, of course."
"Harry?"
"_"
"Harry!"
"Huh?"
"I was thinking."
"Shocker."
"_"
"Sorry."
"Anyways, I was thinking. We have James… what about naming her… Lily?"
"_"
"You don't like it?"
"No. It's perfect."
"Again with that creepy smile."
"Sorry."
"So… Lily Luna?"
"Yes, Lily Luna."
Disclaimer: Harry Potter = not mine! How would anyone feel about me doing one for Rose and Hugo? Shout out to my 'besties' Bethany and Julianna, whose names I think are beautiful.
