About a week ago, a lovely reader named Anna sent me this:
I'd always wanted a personalized-with-my-kid's-names-necklace but for whatever reason had never ordered myself one - always overwhelmed by the options that were out there. Of course, now that I have one, (she customized the three-fer for my two-fer) I refuse to take it off. The kids love to see their names around my neck and I feel like I have them with me when we're separated during the day.
So, thank you Anna! And thank you (also!) for offering one of my readers a personalized charm necklace of their own. To win? Just tell me the names you would have engraved on your necklace. Your children's names? Your parents? The boy you met that one summer in Paris that you're still totally psycho for! you can't get out of your mind? I'll pick one winner at random (via random.org) to announce here next Wednesday. Please include your contact information in your comment so I can find you. Best of luck!
For more on Anna's personalized jewelry, go here. I especially love this one and this. (And these personalized guitar picks are a great call for gifting.) Best of luck, charming yous!

Oh those are lovely. I would have my kids names engraved on them. Of course after this little, unnamed babykins comes. Since until then it would be Rhaynnon, Gwendolyn and Baby#3.
Definitely my daughter's name (Molly). I love the idea that I would feel more connected to her by wearing it throughout the day.
As vain as it sounds, I would get my name and my husband's name.
I love these! I'd have mine read
Maxwell
Ella
meghanmaxwell@Hotmail.com
My children's names, Evan and Caroline. I have a bracelet with Evan's name on it, but Caroline is so freshly-baked (only 3 weeks old) that I don't have anything with her name. I would love this!

Veronica and Ken
I'd want mine to say Madison. It's my niece's name and I'd give it to my sister as a late birthday present! :)
Cute! I'd have my husband and kids - B.J., Mary Grace, Claire, and Jack.

maryruthcan(at)hotmail(dot)com
I've been longing for a piece of jewelry with my family's names on it, and even more so now that we are married and I feel like we're finally an "official" family (maybe lame, but very true). So I would get my children's names - Lillie and Ella - and my husband's name - Chad.
I'd have to do my girls names. But torn between using their real names or their nicknames. Maddie and Brianna or Monkey and Bri. Actually, I'd say Maddie and Bri. This is my fave name necklace I've seen.
Nikki
Solomon and Wyatt for my nephews. I'd give it to my sister in law for her birthday!
I would put my son's name, also Archer, on the necklace. It is beautiful!
I would wait until after the first week of April and add my new baby's name to my daughter, Clare's.
As a women without kids, I'd have it engraved with my two mantra words - Breathe and Reflect
I love these! I and wanted one so bad last year but we still didn't have a name for the baby! I would Put my kiddos names/nick names one it Lou,Pace,Lily & Jude!

I have a necklace with antique spoon handles with my boys (Lucas and James) names engraved on them. I wear it every day.
If I won this I would gift it to my girlfriend Jessica who has Oliver and twins (Nova and Nigel).
She's got three kids under the age of 2! She deserves it!
ccesena29 at hotmail dot com
no kids yet, so would have to have our dog and cats- Dale, Artemis & Athena. They are our practice babies...

My sons' names (Oliver and Andrew :).
Thanks for the chance to win!
I would get my kids' names: Macon and Owen
My daughter's name Jane Claire. I think having the first and middle name would be so cute! :)
All of those necklaces are so beautiful!
I would get one with my little monster's name on it: Tyler James. He's the most wonderful little man in the entire world. And I know he would be endlessly entertained by my wearing a necklace with his name on it. He loves admiring my necklaces, and often wears them proudly. :)
I would get my mother-in-law's and my father-in-law's names. And I'd give the necklace to my mother-in-law. They have been so amazing to me, it would be the least I could do.
I've always wanted a necklace like this too! My son's names are Ethan and Conner.
Thank you for this super awesome give-away!
Holly

I love that necklace! I would include my husband, Kevin, as well, because without him I wouldn't have my great kids.
Kevin, Amber & Jake
The jewelry is lovely. I'd want mine to read: Leon!
I would put my son's name Quincy on a necklace. I have a couple of initial necklaces with Q on them, but his full name would be pretty special! Plus, her designs are so lovely.
My kids, of course! Oliver, Everett and Camilla.
That's lovely! I like the script, and the simplicity.
I would have it engraved with my kids' names and my husband's - the whole family.

mkdaiger(at)gmail(dot)com
I had a necklace like that but lost it. I cried for days... (I'm Sicilian; what can I say?) It was my favorite necklace ever, so winning a new one would be a dream come true!
I would engrave my son's name on it. Like you, I love seeing his name around my neck all day long. I also love when people ask, "Who is he?" It seems to pique peoples' interests. :)
Contact: avacc@my.uri.edu
I'd probably get all my grandparents' last names, using maiden names for the grandmas and then the last names of the grandpas, 4 total. Or maybe my twin's birth time and my birth time. Or something anthropological, since I do love me some anthropology. Ahh, so many cute things you could do with these necklaces!
And oh my, I have friends graduating this spring... I sense grad gifts.
My sweet one's name, Eleanor, or perhaps her initials.
mkington AT hotmail DOT com
I would put my kiddos on that beautiful necklace....Lorelai and Nicholas
Hi Bec,
I would have my kiddos....
my 2 1/2 year old Brooklyn
and 10 year old step-daughter Marissa. I had a similar necklace I wore when Brooklyn was born, but its lost now, so a new one would be too awesome. :)
Jaclyn
jmanzanedo@ctdn.org
I would give it to my mom and have her furry (dogs) children's names:
Penny
Cricket
jessie.atl @ gmail .com
So pretty! Lucky you! If that necklace were mine, I would put my husband's name as well as my kids' names on there. Roy, Charlie, and Simon. :)
My sons are Suttree and Oliver. I want to add a third someday too!
My baby is still cooking and we're not finding out the sex, so I think if I won a necklace right now I would just have it say
Matt and baby
i've always wantd something like this, but never bought one. i'd probably do initials. so g, s, f, m
especially since i have 4 kids. that would be wordy all up on my neck.
I would have my boys names printed on the charms...Devin and Christian.
Love it. I'd do my kids' names. Matthew, Elise, and Viviana (or Viv =) )
m-saldana@hotmail.com
I have a different variant of a necklace with kids + spouse. Think I would do this with just my kids names or maybe even just initials.
Kids, of course! Aidan and Cohen.
sarahd@crimson.ua.edu
I've been looking for a non-cheesy "mommy" neclace. So many lovely options on her site!
I'd put my boys names: Ryan, Luke and Jack.
vanderyacht (at) yahoo (dot) com
I love those!
I would have my girls name on it! (Maelie, Constance & Roseline)
Not to be morbid, I think I would have to choose my mother and grandmother: Janie and Janice. They were two incredible women I lost too soon. As much as I adore my boyfriend and puppy, I think it would mean more to hang their names around my neck.
Since I already won a necklace (that I LOVE) here, I feel bad commenting to try to win another, BUT. That is lovely, and I had to say so. I would have mine engraved with the name of my best girl, Magnolia Zinash. And then someday I'll have to get a second or add a charm or something for our second Ethiopian lovely, first name Evelina, middle name who knows? (Yes, I have already named our second daughter, even though we are still knee deep in being new parents to our first girl. Kinda nutso, I know. But she already has a place in my heart, so whatever.)
I would put on my two son's names, Henry and Sam.
Theresa
tlandewe at gmail dot com
I would have Jocy and Nevi engraved, my husband's girls biologically, who in turn are mine by fate!
melberry29@gmail.com
I would have Lulu put on it for my Grandma. She got to see my son once before she died and never got to see my daughters. I talk about her all the time and think that would be a great way to "have her with me" all the time.
I would have Jack and Kate, my nephew and niece, and give it to my sister-in-law, whom I love!
Andrea
hanstein.andrea@gmail.com
Fletcher -- my beautiful baby, and Andrew -- my wonderful husband.

Oh, that is lovely! If this giveaway is open internationally (I live in the UK), I'd love to enter. (But I'll understand if it's not!)
I'd put my son's name on it, definitely.
I've been following your blog since I discovered it on Momversation a couple of years ago AND since this is National De-lurking Day, it's high time I posted something. It's a beautiful necklace and I'd choose my son's name, Elliott and my husband's name, Roger.
Thanks for all the effort and creativity you put into your blog, I check it every morning.
I'd have my baby niece's name engraved on it and then give the necklace to my sister. Lucille was adopted a month after our mother's death and has been our sunshine ever since.
I can be contacted at yoheathero@yahoo.com.
Oh my gosh I'm torn. On the one hand I'd love to have my kids names, but what if I had another and he/she was left out? So maybe I would have something like faith, hope and love. The necklace is beautiful.

I've been looking for one too with the same problem. I can never decide on one! I would love one with both my daughter, Olive, and my husband Steve's names. So sweet!
Wow, that is absolutely beautiful. Is this open to residents of Canada? If so my chosen names are Cindy, Ray, and Cody.
Raia
raia_k@hotmail.com
I would definitely put my daughters names on it. Summer, Morgan and Rivea.
summor95@yahoo.com
I'd love it! I'd get Jay (hubby), Jaimeson & Janel. I call them my "JC3" or my 3J's. They are my circle!
I'm getting that tat on my wrist
JC3 because there's 3 of them w/ the J. My birthday is the 3rd, my son was born on a 3rd and my mom (who passed) was born on the 3rd.

I have a charm necklace with a charm for each of my kids - their names on the front and birthdays on the back) and I love love love it. used to wear it everyday, until the third was born and used to yank it so I had to take it off. But now that she's older I can probably put it back on.
This necklace is super cute, and even though I don't need it, just in case I win I would want Isabelle, Jack and Sophie engraved on it.
also: thanks for posting some pics of Archer - I know you said you don't want to tell his story now that he is older, but still showing us some photos can't hurt, right? Your family is so beautiful!

I want one of those necklaces SO. BAD. I'd put my girls' names on there (Paige and Kira) until we decide on #3 in a couple years.
I've been looking at these on Etsy, but just haven't pulled the trigger yet :-)
I'm sooo not a jewelry girl, but this is so elegant and understated, I could see myself wearing this every day. Also, it's perfect timing because I just found out a few weeks ago I'm expecting my third child! So my necklace would read Phaedra, Bellatrix, and either Surrey (girl) or Linus (boy).
Word- Katherine
Email- katherinecampagna@hotmail.com
