My mother and grandmother are named related to the moon. Andrew&#8217;s grandmother&#8217;s full name is Monica but people always called her &#8220;Mona&#8221;, which is means moon in old English. This was a perfect middle name for her! We decided on Mona as her middle name, to honor our grandmother from both side of the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When people ask what her name means, and which language, it&#8217;s a bit difficult to explain because it has multiple origins, drawing from various cultural, and linguistic backgrounds. It is the name that came from Love from our parents and family lines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">JB, Kay&#8217;s mama. <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Why Kaylaya?
