She is darling! I love baby pics! What a cutie!

Be careful using such a big pot when the plant is so small... too much wet soil can cause root rot.. It seems like they would do better when they have room to stretch... I haven't lost seedlings that way, but that's what I've read here...

Also, you know those wooden skewers for kabobs? (super cheap) You can use those for plant stakes to keep seedlings straight so they will have a nice straight trunk.

How would you find out if there is one already out there under your fantasy name? Does anyone know where one goes to see the names of brugs already chosen?
