It's official. We've filled out the birth certificate. You can expect Sister's name to remain: Amelia Mae Franklin (unless she decides to change it herself). We had two first names picked out: Josephine and Amelia. When Marley came to meet her at the hospital for the first time, we asked him to pick her name. He chose Amelia.
We then had the task of finding a middle name. After running down a short list, Jeff and I decided that we both really liked the sound of May/Mae. But, which spelling? We went back and forth, thinking we'd settled on one, then the other. The thing that solidified our decision was that Jeff's maternal grandmother's middle name was spelled M-A-E and her birthday is the day before Amelia's!

What a lovely name for a lovely girl. Reminds me of my Grandma, Anna Mae :-)
