Nimma asks students respectfully to help Nimma and other elves name our Baby Elf. Nimma would please invite students to make name suggestions and Nimma and other elves shall make a big list of names and all names can be picked and chosen from a big list and studentsies can choose the name! This is a big special honor bestowed by elves, studentsies." She bowed furiously. "Nimma thanks studentsies for helping last year and Nimma would like help now too. Nimma says thank you and humbly asks for names to be put on papers and slipped under the kitchen door! Nimma thanks studentsies again! Nimma shall go now." She bowed and disapparated with a pop.
Louisa had a mouthful of mashed potatoes when the house-elf started talking. With a sideways glance at the little creature, the girl watched her trying to make her voice heard over the low chatter of hungry students. Looking back at her plate, Louisa went on with her food hearing the house elf's request.
To name their baby.
The Ravenclaw had difficulty swallowing the fairly large bite, her eyes bugging out just a bit, before she stared at the house elf across the hall. "
He's still here." She was going to the library straight from here and looking for a charm to secure her trunk, and study tools. Hmph. As for naming the baby, Louisa was going to read about House Elves names before suggesting one. Maybe a mysterious and senseless one would resemble the little creature.
For now, she was too hungry to think about anything.
