When we picked the name "Ava" we liked it because it sounded old-fashioned. People "of an age" will comment on the actress Ava Gardner. It was a name that was not common, but not unusual, something we tried to go for in all the kids' names. But something's happened...
Ava, the daughter of actors Reese Witherspoon and Rya
n Philippe
n Philippe Ava, the daughter of ever-youthful Heather Locklear and rocker Richie Sambora
Ava Jackman, daughter of X-men's "Wolverine" (and Tony-award winner) Hugh Jackman (and let me say this is going to cause some confusion when he becomes the next Mr. Carla Hillman. Or Jackman. Whatever.)
And last, but not least...
Africa Ava, my favorite one of all!
