So there has been some discussion...is his name really Basil or Basos?
His name is Basil Alexander. He is named after his great grandfather whose name was Basilio. We just kind of Americanized the name. Mark's grandfather who was Ukrainian but grew up in South America had a Spanish name. We thought that the name Basilio Chripczuk just looked way too foreign on paper.
Basos is his nickname. Oliver was about 19 months when Basos was born. This is the way he said Basil....
Basos has stuck. We like it......Kind of reminds us of "besos" which is the Spanish word for kisses.

I was wondering why he was Basos now. I was feeling so out of the loop.
