I've been trying to think of a name that goes with either of them & coming up blank.

I like some of the names you all are thinking up & will toss them around with Dh & see what he likes.
I thought of a couple more too although they don't go with the dam or sire either but Godiva was 1 & Cricket the other.
I know not very fancy like some names people use for registries but I'm not good at thinking up good names like some of you.

Okay, so this is REALLY out there, and maybe I'm in the mood for a snack, but when I look at her, what first came to mind was when you bite into a chocolate Hostess cupcake and see the fluffy spot of white vanilla filling inside. So, "Hostess" is my offering. Since she's a little sweety, as you say.

The white top knot makes me think the same thing. I think that's also what Minelson was thinking with the name Little Debbie.

Going off the names I would say
Brahms's Lullaby - Barn name Lily

Brahms's Lullaby (Lullaby and Goodnight)
Lullaby and goodnight, with roses bedight
With lilies o'er spread is baby's wee bed
Lay thee down now and rest, may thy slumber be blessed
Lay thee down now and rest, may thy slumber be blessed
Lullaby and goodnight, thy mother's delight
Bright angels beside my darling abide
They will guard thee at rest, thou shalt wake on my breast
They will guard thee at rest, thou shalt wake on my breast

I went to the Little Debbie website, just for kicks, and what did they happen to have on their home page?

one of my first goats I bought was named Essey which I later found out was short for ESCAPE. True story.

Thanks for all the ideas everyone. I had a thread after this one that had both girls with pictures & the name we decided on for this little girl, well actually hubby picked it. We named her Cricket.
No my 1st choice & not very fancy but it's growing on me. He never names the goats so he was pretty pleased.
