Shares * Editor’s note: Tanya Perez is taking the day off. This column originally published in May 2018. Over the years I’ve made a point of not sharing my husband’s or sons’ names in this column. It just seemed like they might have a little more privacy by not being directly named. Of course, it would be easy to figure out their names if someone were inclined, but I’ve liked having a little cloak over them. Today, however, I want to share the origin story of our older son’s name, because it’s kind of adorable and weird, all at once.
