Happy Birthday Cobie Smulders
By JD
Cobie Smulders, the youngest cast member and fellow ’82er, turns 26 today. As a teenager, Cobie caught the eye of a modeling agency, which led to several years of world travel to places such as France, Japan, Italy, Greece, and Germany. Yet even as Cobie’s modeling career was on the rise, she still managed to attend school, graduating from high school in 2000 with honors.
In Cobie’s honor, here is a short bio:

Bottom left picture is incredibly gorgeous. Cobie’s done a great job and is now doing a lot with a little in the last few episodes.

I wish that she had been my Canadian girlfriend that I told everyone about.

Crap….I keep forgetting I’m older than her.
On the down side that makes me feel old.
On the up side that makes me feel like I’ve got a chance with her

She’s almost exactly two years older than me (I, too, was born in April). Means nothing though, but excuse this poor sap for having anything in common as this incredibly beautiful person.
As for her name, does she have any Spanish/Italian roots? I mean, Jacoba Fransisca Maria? Always loved the name Fransisca. Never heard of someone called Jaocba. Does explain where the name Cobie came from.
Did I mention how incredible I thought she looked? Never enough times. Bottom left is the best in my view too.

[...] you met Ted? points out that Thursday was Cobie Smulder’s birthday… I find this worth mentioning only because they also point out that Cobie’s full name [...]

Her name is Dutch, all very common albeit old fashioned names in Holland. Cobie is often short for Jacoba.

Firefly is one of the TV Series that was created by Joss Whedon. I love Firefly so much but it does not have Season 2.:“
