  3. Tony is the first name of babys dad. Baby is a Jr to daddy. He carrys his full name! That why we chose Tony. No dislikes just love it a bunch. To also know that he carries out his daddy’s heritage.

  5. Tony is actually a nickname for Anthony. We chose the name Anthony after my cousin! He’s close in age to me and has been a great friend my whole life. Even since I’ve been married, he has become good friends with my husband. My sons full name is Anthony Warren Whitney. The Warren name is for my grandfather who passed away 7 years ago. We call Anthony, Tony because he’s just so cute and playful! It suites him well <3 Tony has struggled with weight gain since birth and we've taken to calling him "Teeny Tiny Tony"
