Share Your Thoughts 4 Comments Shelby Jun 30 at 7:19 pm It’s his dad’s name and a non heard name before Reply Nakita May 11 at 9:15 am We actually had two different boy names picked out with different middle names, both of the middle names referencing my dad and his dad. After nonchalantly speaking to my dad days before baby was born, we learned he had always disliked his name and always wished his parents named him after his dad and that’s how we ended up choosing Cruz Wayne over Luka Brian. What made it even better was my husband picked the middle names with such love for my dad ? My husband telling my parents the name was the most special memory as both my husband and dad cried with joy, a moment I will never forget.
