Isabella: Carrie and I both really like long names that can be shorten to make nicknames. I espicially wanted a name with a lot of syllible to make up for my name. The name Isabella and Samantha immediately shot into both of our minds. We were leaning towards Samantha but Tim (our friend) decided to name his dog Sammy... so we went with Isabella. We like Isabella because it can be shortend to many nicknames. We're sticking with Bella.
Daravathi: Before Bella was concieved Carrie and I agreed that my parents would give Bella her middle name. The name Daravathi was thought up while my mom and Kea (oldest brother) was visiting John (second brother) in Florida. John's wife Bo-Pa and Kea's wife Leanne were both expecting girls this same year. My mom and brothers thought that it would be cute for all three girls to share a common name. The name Vathi was the common name that was agreed upon. John's daughter is named Amaravathi. Kea's daughter is named Samavathi. All three names are derived from ancient Indian culture. In Khmer Bella's middlename is pronounce Dara-Vathey. It means "Star Girl".
Lim: Lim is my family name so she has to have it. It is a chinese name that means "canopy of the forest"
Isabella Daravathi Lim: Her full name translate to "Beautiful Star Girl in the Canopy"
