Recap
Lily and Marshall are having a nice visit with their friends that have a baby. Claudia and Stewart were the ones that got married when Ted met the baker that moved out of the country. They still haven't decided what they are going to name their child. There is a bit of bitterness between one another over the fact that they can't decide on a name. Marshall and Lily think that they are never going to argue over something that seems to be so trivial. That is when the names they suggest are never the same and things seem to prove them wrong all the time...Read the full recap
