Ayrton's Name

Ayrton's name originally came from Aaron, since Ayrton Senna is Aaron's all-time racing hero. Ayrton Senna was a triple Formula 1 world champion and perhaps the most gifted and passionate driver ever. He died in 1994 at the San Marino Grand Prix.

Once we started thinking about this name, Amber started doing research. We found that Ayrton's origin is Scottish/Gaelic, meaning "From the river Ayr". Since both of our families have Scottish roots and we loved the sound of the name, that was it!

Here's a photo we took today while at the doc. Ayrton's BR level is dropping rapidly so his Jaundice is getting much better!
