Author's Notes: Thank you, particularly to VampiresAreMyForever and Norgleekfor the beautiful name suggestions. I have already got a perfect middle name in my mind, which you will find out incredibly soon – in two to three chapters time. And I also know which one of Sophia and Elise I will use, and I think you'll all like it. AND EVEN BETTER, Blaine is going to pop the question next chapter, so get excited

Ever since they came back from Ohio, Kurt and Blaine had been looking through countless baby books for names. They hadn't found a name they could agree on three weeks later, and were at a doctor's appointment.

"Everything seems good," The midwife waved the wand around Kurt's 33 week pregnant stomach. "Have you two got a birth plan?"

"As natural as possible," Kurt responded, as she nodded. "I'm over my head thinking that aren't I?"

"Being honest," The woman said as Kurt was wiping the gel off his stomach. "Heaps of women come in here and say they want it all natural but end up taking the epidural within three or so hours. But I've seen some women do it all without anything, so it really depends. All the baby stuff, have you got it?"

"Yes," Blaine responded this time. "We found out this morning that we got an apartment that will be available the week Kurt is due. But we have everything in case she is born early."

"Good," The woman responded. "Do you have any other questions?"

Both men shook their heads and headed back to the loft. Blaine had made them both tea and they were sitting back with the baby books again. Finn and Rachel were also there and listening in.

"I swear this is so hard," Kurt grumbled. "Whatever name we give her, she is stuck with it for the rest of her life."

"She needs a name from a musical," Rachel interjected. "I know that when I have a daughter she'll be named Fanny."

"Good luck with that," Kurt focussed on the book. "But I don't think we want to name her after a musical character."

"Kurt is after a musical character." Rachel rebutted as Kurt rolled his eyes.

"How about like after your mum?" Finn responded.

"I don't know," Kurt said as Finn, Rachel and Blaine were all looking at him. "I mean I feel like I've already payed homage to her when I convinced my dad to change my middle name to Elizabeth."

"You can name her Eliza," Rachel offered. "Or Liza. Both Broadway themed."

"I don't think so Rach," Kurt smiled as Blaine just let Kurt brush it off. "Maybe I'll stick to tributing my mum through name."

"What names do you like Blaine?" The diva asked.

"Well I am still mid-way through convincing Kurt to name to her Katy." Blaine explained.

"You know that isn't going to happen, right?" Kurt laughed. "Neither will any names of Disney princesses."

"You wait and see," Blaine grinned. "Katy Ariel Hummel-Anderson is going to be her name."

"Yeah I don't think so." Kurt laughed. "How about Melody or Harmony? I kind of like those names?"

"I don't know." Blaine pondered.

They didn't end up getting anywhere that night and Kurt was frustrated at work the next day.

"Are you okay?" The woman in her thirties who had the desk next to Kurt's asked.

"Do you know how hard choosing a baby name is?" Kurt muttered. "We can't decide on anything."

"I know," The woman responded. "As a mum of three I can say that you'll know what to name her. For most people it's when they actually see the baby, for others it happens before."

That night Kurt was getting stuff for dinner on the way home and looked up to the girl at the cash register that didn't look much older than sixteen or seventeen. She had dark brown curls and big blue eyes – Kurt could almost picture her as a possible child of his and Blaine's. His eyes were directed to the name tag.

"Sophia?" Kurt said out loud. "That's a beautiful name."

"Thank you." The girl responded.

Kurt smiled politely as he grabbed the bag and got back to the loft as fast as he could. Blaine was waiting for him and took the grocery bag.

"I got the perfect name," Kurt beamed. "Sophia! Sophia Hummel-Anderson!"

"Sophia is a nice name," Blaine agreed. "But I still think that we should revisit Elizabeth. She was your mother Kurt. We can name her Elise if you want to go for a variant of the name -"

"Okay." Kurt responded, and Blaine watched the taller name hold back for a moment.

"So, we have Elise or Sophia," Blaine smiled. "Both beautiful names."
