Congratulations! I like the name Rivers. I checked your posts to see if I could find your naming story, and I saw Rivers was on your first name list and Boyd on your middle name list at least since April. Do you mind sharing the story of this name? I think River is the only name I like equally well on boys and girls, and so for that reason I probably wouldn't use it; but Rivers, maybe because the 's' lends it surname status, shades the name more blue, somehow.
Congratulations on a healthy baby boy and a handsome name choice! Best wishes."He telleth the number of the stars; He calleth them all by their names."
Psalm 147:4

Thanks everyone!
Our naming story is probably boring. My husband & I agreed on the name Rivers when we first started dating. My husband wanted a name that was rockstar worthy and we brought up River but thought the S made the name more masculine.
Boyd is actually my maiden name so even though it is a boy's name in this instance it's a family name. My husband says that if our baby becomes a rockstar he can drop our last name and go by his first & middle, haha.
