My family's names are:

Mom Cindy (not short for anything, no middle name), Heb. Sarah
Dad Frederick Lawrence (goes by Larry), Heb. Frayim
Step-Mom Lorrayne (no middle name)
Me Risa Lilith, Heb. Rachel (I am named after my dad's grandmother, Rose (Heb. Rachel), and my mom's grandfather, Lester.)
Sister Marcia Joy, Heb. Mara Simcha (Her middle name comes from the second part of her Heb. name, Simcha, which was my uncle Jonathan's Heb. name. He passed away in a fire when he was a teenager. Simcha means "joy".)
Brother Zachary Joseph, Heb. Zechariah Yoseph
Brother Marc Aaron, Heb. Moshe Aaron
Mother-in-Law JoAnn Marie
Father-in-Law Ralph Edward
Husband Daniel John
Brother-in-Law Patrick Ralph
Sister-in-Law Anne Marie Rose (Anne Marie is my sister-in-law's FIRST name.)
Niece Julia Rose
My sister-in-law's husband is Brazilian. His name is Andre. I don't know what his middle name is, or if he even has one, for that matter.

I know that there are a lot of repeated names in my husband's family (even his middle name is a repeat of his godfather's name). We won't be repeating any names (of living relatives) when we have children, in accordance with Jewish tradition.

So, WDYT?

I love the name Simcha because of it's meaning.
