+ Samuel & Hannah
~ Bethany
− Zachariah

Samuel & Hannah are the two I've had for years already. Why not Zachariah?

What would you pick for yourself?

[cleversimon]

Too many Zachs out there, for one.

I've got a huge list of potential offspring names in my head. My latest half-joking thought is Johanna Louise, which is a Bob Dylan reference and Louise is my grandmother's name, so it's double-awesome, haha. I like Ariana, too. Elizabeth is pretty and classic but becoming awfully popular for my liking.

I don't have as strong opinion on boys' names. Noah is Michele's current favourite, but I'm on the fence about it. We've been meaning to give our first son the middle name David (after mine and my dad's middle names and the given name of Michele's late father), but that would do well as a first name, too.

I don't know any Zachs!

I wanted to change my name to Elizabeth when I was little, but I never liked it shortend to 'Liz'. Ariana and Noah are really cute. I really like naming after people, I hadn't thought of it. I shoud do that for middle names.

ooh I like your names. I once considered Sebastian along with Theodore, in my mind they sound so wonderfully british.

Under the sea?

I like Zacariah. It's very solid. I have a thing about Biblical names too for some reason, although I'm not religious. I'm not so keen on Bethany. :)

I met the sweetest little girl called Bethany back in February and I only started liking that name then.

It's pretty obvious I'm on a Biblical theme isn't it? I love the meanings of these names.

[_speranza]

Me too. Although Leah was the less attractive daughter of Jacob lol. Although I'm told she was the most productive and reliable.

Jacob is nice, although perhaps a little ponsy for my liking. All the Jacob's I've met have been cocky little g*ts so that has sort of put me off. Elijah is nice, and Isaac!

I like Ella for a girl, after Ella Fitzgerald. Or Eliza after my great great Grandmother!

Its worse making mistakes like that at morrisons or mcdonalds, trust me! I couldnt laugh at those after, ouch...

also. calantha. I really like that name. ;)

[inapplicable]

Calantha means 'beautiful blossoms' in Greek. Which is a bit too much like 'beautiful bosoms' for my liking.

Cyd is very cute, I think it's one of those names that seems so grown up that on a baby its just adorable. Although apparently it's Greek for 'A public hill'.
