The Story Behind the Name-
Our little James is named after my Dad, James Joseph Passanante. James' middle name was also inspired by my Dad's middle name, but also by both of my awesome Grandpa's; Joseph Aaron Clinger and Joseph Anthony Passanante. I love family names if you can't tell. I have loved the name James since I was a little girl. If I were a boy my parents were going to name me Jesse James. Well, I was obviously a girl and because of that they decided not to give me a middle name. I was always mad that I never had a middle name so I decided to tell people my middle name was James. I thought it was so cool to share my name with my dad. I loved this name so much that I decided long ago that one of my boys would be named James. James was one of my top picks for Gabe too, but Garrett wasn't too into it until he really got to know my Dad. Garrett grew to love the name because of the man behind it. We knew from the day we found out James was a boy that was his name. As I get to know him better day by day I am so glad we choose James as his name. He is definitely a James. We love you little guy!
