Why?

I think the word or expression that God must hate the most (besides His name in vain) is "Why?" or "Why me/us?" I know the why question is usually asked in sad/bad situations, but lately I have been wondering why us for a different reason. I am wondering why God gave us a baby boy named E. We loved E's name and had the name picked for Alea if she was a boy. When we got married we thought we wanted a boy and a girl. We KNEW the boy name would be E's name but didn't come up with Alea's name until I was pregnant. After Alea was born we decided not to have more children, but I still loved the name and Davin still would have loved to have a little boy. We are happy with our decision to not have more children biologically and I am not sure if we will adopt one day through foster care or not (not our original plan, but I know God's plans are not always our own) so I just wonder why, for this first experience, God gave us such a sweet, loving boy named E.
