New name lists...thoughts?
Jan. 5th, 2008 09:22 pmI seem to go in flows of really liking one gender and wanting to redo all the names of the other.
My husband and I both like our girls' name list at this point:
Top 5 first names:
Mirabelle
Celia
Winifred
Zofia
Irena
Middle/Hebrew names:
Batel
Eliora
Elinoa
Emuna
Mehetabel
Nili
Serach
Shifra
And as such we're having issues with our boys name list. We both have a couple that still fit for first names:
Dominic
Franklin
But there are some which we like for first names, but couldn't use together (singularly they are fine, but together they are OTT):
Asher
Eben
Ezekiel
Jeremiah (nn Jeremy or Jer. I have a cousin Jeremy which is why we don't think we can just use Jeremy)
Zedekiah (possible nn of Zed, Zedekiah)
And middle names for boys:
Eran (my children now have a step-cousin named Erin)
Naaman
Reuel
Seraiah
Ismeari
Yosha
All thoughts and suggestions welcome!
