Your Name

Daddy and I wanted to give you a strong name and one that would be as unique as you are.  We named your older brother Graham with a name that starts with the letter 'G' after Daddy, so we wanted your name to be after Daddy as well.

We decided that Daddy would choose your first name and Mommy would choose your first middle name.  Then, you would get Mommy's maiden name as your second middle name (Moon), just like big brother Graham, and your last name Garcia.

Collectively, we both loved the name Maverick.  We first thought of the name before we conceived you.  It ends just like Daddy's, is a strong name, and is very unique.  We love the movie Top Gun, but you weren't necessarily named after that movie.  Mommy also loves James Garner and he starred in a tv series during your great grandma's time called Maverick.  Plus, Daddy is a techie and Apple's current OS is named Mavericks.

Your middle name, Yukio, is after your Great Grandma Alice Yukie Moon.  She is a strong fighter, just like you are, and it was only fitting to name you after her.  She is facing some adversity right now as well and you both are fighting through it together!  Yukio means Blessed Hero and baby boy, you are our little blessing and Daddy says you have Super Hero qualities and can fight through and conquer anything this world has coming your way!  And, just like your Great Grandma Moon, you have a little spunk (we can tell already by your big entrance into this world! Lol)!

We love you Maverick Yukio Moon Garcia.
