A Middle Name

The middle name is most likely going to be Ichiro. My mom helped pick it out since she's the Japanese part of the family. She originally suggested Ken, but that didn't seem Japanese enough. Plus it's my cousin Steven's middle name. Then there was Kenji, but seeing as it means something like second son, we didn't think that it would be appropriate.

Finally my mom said, "What about Ichiro?"

I said, "Like the baseball player?"

She said, "Like number one."

I thought about it, received some positive feedback from one particular co-worker, and then after some deliberations, we decided on it because it means "first son".

There it is. More on Owens and Ichiros later on...
