Oct. 8th, 2006 08:13 pmI have loved the name Elijah for a very long time and it has recently become very tainted.. which I'm not too happy about, but nevertheless the name is tainted and I'm just not sure I could ever name my child that now. I know it may sound silly, but I'm sure there are some of you who completely understand this.
Anyway, I would still love to name my child something similar. We had planned to call Elijah "Eli" for short and I have recently become attached to just Eli. (I like Elias, husband doesnt, so it's out)
Here's the point:
1.) Is Eli "name" enough to stand on its own? (ETA Eli is Jewish/English/Biblical and means "ascension")
2.) Eli Malachi sounds horrible, so what other middle names might you suggest?
3.) Opinions on these:
Eli Adam
Eli Aaron
Eli Isaac
