It can't be someone he's already met unless he's changing names to throw off his kids. His kids know their mom's name so once they hear it they would know.

I'm also hoping for a threeway involving Nora and Quinn and Stella.

Does Ted ever refer to Lily/Marshall as aunt or uncle to the kids? Uncle Marshall and Aunt Lilly?

Or does he only do it with robin and barney?

Yes. In fact he does it more with them than with Robin and Barney.

Ya I think he does as well.

It just seems kind of dumb to me that he would tell his kids this epic tale of how he met there mom if the whole time it was just Barney's sister.

I think it's more likely that she is in the band or something and that's why she's at the wedding.

There wouldn't be a show then. And I think people will be much happier if it is Barney's sister than just a random woman

That...and why would it matter that its his sister and he's been mentioning Barney's name?

It's not "How I Met Barney" or "How I Met Barney's Sister".

There is an episode involving a stripper which makes a good argument that the mom's name is Tracy and not Carly (Barney's sister).

I did some googling for that nugget.

Ted at the end of a Thanksgiving episode ends up with Barney at a strip club and starts talking to a stripper named Tracy and goes "And thats how I met your mother"

The kids freak out and he says hes just kidding. The theory is they know teir mothers first name and thought that was their mother as the stripper because her first name is Tracy

I dont buy it. I think it was a joke and ots under the assumption that everything that happens in the show is being told to the kids (which i dont think is the case)

I agree with you here. If not Ted is a horrible parent telling his kids about he and his friends sex lives

Couldn't some of the surprise just be from the fact that Tracy is NOT their mother's name and suddenly they just found out the woman they thought was their mother all this time actually isn't their mother?

Guys. Strippers use fake names. Her name doesn't have to be Tracy.

I think you missed the point

If the stripper name of Tracy was real or fake it wouldnt matter to the kids because either way the mothers name would still be Tracy(if you believe the theory)

Nope. That's assuming that the kids don't know that strippers go by fake names on stage. He could have said any name and then said "and that's how I met your mother."

It will probably end with Ted confessing his love for Robin again
