The only baby name book I have as yet is The New Jewish Baby Book by Anita Diamant. It is not even a baby name book per se, it just has a section with names in it. But I digress. I was looking through it today and thought I would post some names I really like, but are not on my list (Asher, Elijah, and Caleb for boys and Mirah, Adara, and Leah for girls) because relatives already have them, or my boyfriend disapproves, or they are a little too Hebrew for my non Jewish family, and see what you all think. Don't worry about hurting my feelings if you don't like them, as I said they aren't on my "official list" right now anyhow.

Boys
Aaron
Ariel
Gideon
Isaac
Nathaniel
Seth (this one doesn't work because it doesn't go with the last name Schifman, try to say it 5 times fast)

Girls
Aviva
Aliyah
Chaya
Devorah
Delilah
Hadassah
Hannah
Keturah
Kinneret
Levana
Shoshana
Tzipporah

I had always planned on naming my daughter haddassah because I absolutely love it but then I found out it meant myrtle tree and it really killed it for me.

also I LOVE LOVE LOVE when people use ariel for a male name. I love how its pronounced for a man.

aw you should use Hadassah anyway, she was such a cool heroine.
