#Esther Keyes Bates

I don’t understand what Nathan is wearing. Esther and Kenna are quite formal, and then Nathan is in a plaid shirt? This would have looked a million times better if he was in a red solid shirt. Heck, I would take any solid shirt over this. It really cheapens the look.

From Esther Joy (Keyes) Bates’s Instagram (June 7, 2022). Looks like they found out the baby’s sex.

Tori and Bobby are really gunning to pass Kelly and Gil, huh?  Four kids so young, I have no idea how they do it.  

Congrats to Abbie and John as well!  

And Nathan and Esther I guess.  I pity any kid Nathan Bates raises.  Moreso than the rest I mean.

Someone on reddit once called Esther's family a "religious bag of skittles" and I think that is so accurate

Baby Bates-Keyes 1 Name Predictions

On Mother's Day 2022 Esther and Nathan Bates announced they were expecting their first child. I fully expect them to announce today, Father's Day. I originally thought the baby was a boy but now I've seen the sonogram, I think it's a girl.

First Name

I think Esther and Nathan will chose a cute name for a girl but nothing that is too unique. They could go completely against my expectations and chose a tryndy name though.

A boy's name would be more biblical but still cutesy, or full on cutest with Hudson vibes. I think Oliver is a possibility but maybe not as I think that's still on Carlin's list for a boy. Having said that, Esther and Nathan might not give a shit about that and use it anyway.

Middle Name

I'm expecting them to use Esther's middle name for a girl and Nathan's for a boy. Otherwise I think Rose or Hope are very much on their wavelength. Nathan is the sort of person who would insist on one of his names being his son's middle name.

Nice job predicting Esther and Nathan’s baby— you were on the right track with Kennedy and got Joy right!! I liked your double letter name list for Joe and Kendra’s potential baby too, but I don’t think they’ll name this one Rhett, since they already have a gar-rhett. Maybe when they run out of names in 15 years lol

You make a good point. The reason I didn't include Rhett as a finalist had more to do with the length and vibe of the name than the fact it's just the second syllable of Garrett. I didn't even really notice that haha. Thanks for your kind words! I will be riding the high of (kinda) predicting Kenna Joy for days.
