Show Us Your Life - Your Kid's Names

Andre Jermaine Jr. aka AJ

AJ was named after his Daddy, Andre Jermaine Sr. He always wanted his first born son to be named after him. Before we ever had kids, we would joke around that we would one day have a little AJ. It's still so crazy to me that AJ was our first born child and we actually named him AJ! We take this as a sign that Andre Sr. and I were meant to be :)

Ronde Kingston

When I found out we were having another boy, it was my turn to pick the name. I have always loved the names Ronde and Tiki (Barber..NFL players). I chose Ronde as the first name because I thought it was very unique and also rhymed with Andre! It also sounded like good brother names..Andre and Ronde. For the middle name, I liked how strong Kingston sounded. My kids are also half Jamaican so I thought it was neat that Kingston is the capitol of Jamaica. So Ronde Kingston it was! I love his name so much!

Jamal DeMarcus

Naming our 3rd son is especially hard this time. I've gone through a whole list on names and finally decided on Jamal. I like Jamal because it sounds like a strong manly name but at the same time, it sounds like a cute little boy name. (If that makes sense..haha) It also is 5 letters long just like Andre and Ronde. DeMarcus was decided because I like the name Marcus but it didn't sound right as "Jamal Marcus". After lots of searching, I found the name DeMarcus. I thought that had a nice flow to it "Jamal DeMarcus". Andre is already talking about calling him JD. I'm not as thrilled with that as he is. We already have one child with an initials name!
