They also asked if it was a family name or one that I made up. It is a family name. It is David's mother's maiden name, and also David's middle name. Jack is my mother's maiden name.
I hope that clears up any questions people have about the names we selected!
I know that Braley is an unusual choice, and this is only the start of people wondering about it. We like it and think it goes great with our other kids' names. He also just looks like a Braley. So it sticks : )
David and I were married in June of 2006. I am a stay-at-home mom after a long struggle with Infertility. We have been lucky on our first and second cycles of In-Vitro Fertilization (IVF)! We have a daughter, Paige Madeline, born April 23, 2009. Our twin boys, Jack David and Braley James, came on November 16, 2010.

I love the name Braley. When you first posted about it I thought that it is a very strong name. In my ind it seems as if a very professional successful name! It's perfect!!!
I love your choice :) Curious how it is pronounced? In my head it sounds like "Hailey" but with a "Br" instead of the "H". Is that right?
I love his name and cannot stand the people that are trying to tell you to name your child something else.
He is YOUR baby - not theirs. And, his name totally fits him. He so looks like a Braley!
Paige, Jack and Braley are great names and I love that Jack and Braley are your mothers' maiden names. I'm surprised about the amount of comments you have gotten on the name Braley. I heard it the other day at the playground so it can't be that unusual. My son's name is uncommon and I get asked a lot about it. I actually like the questions because it gives me a chance to tell the story behind it. : )
I LOVE the name Braley... and Jack... and Paige. All great names for great little kids!
Your little boys will grow up with strong family names that they will be proud of.
Glad you stand up for yourself and your decisions! :)
Love you guys and your three precious babies!!
