Why would you monogram a baby gift?
In the past a monogram was a way of showing that a person's namewas very important. The first thing a bride did was put her monogram with her new last name on everything she could. These items usually became part of her hope chest and later were used in her first home. Newly weds love having monogrammed matching bathrobes and monogrammed towels for their bathroom.
We think a newborn's name should be equaly important should his monogram should be displayed prominently on clothing , bedding and plush toys. A monogram defines him ; it is the first letter of each of his three names. If he has same first name as his father, he can even use his father's monogrammed possessions. If baby girl has the same name as her mother, she can do the same. Monogramming makes an item more valuable; it can become a keepsake.
Monogramming a baby girl's dress is a wonderful way of personalizing the dress and making it unique. Monogrammed dresses

Monogrammed hats and sweaters are also terrific BABY GIFTS. We recommend putting the initial of the last name in the middle. This middle initial is larger than the other two and looks really sharp on a baby gift. If the three initials are the same size, the inital of the last name is always at the end.
Sometimes, it is fun to have just one initial on an outfit. Then you can choose either the initial of the last name or the first name.
