    Hit me with some names!

    Ok so obviously being only 16wks I don't actually know wether we are having a boy or girl (& havnt decided if we'll find out yet!)... But I've been thinking of names already and am at a bit of a loss.

    For a girl I had chosen last time and 'think' I still like T a l i t h a M a r g a r e t but I'm definitely open to suggestions!

    As for boys I had NOTHING I was really liking but discussed it with dh last week and he surprised me by coming up with two options (so far) they were S i m e o n or I s a i a h. While I like both I'd definitely lean towards the first because the second is quite similar to ds2 it might be confusing so I kinda need thoughts on those two and heaps of ideas for middle names coz I've got absolutely nothing other than possibly J o h n or E d w a r d from great grandfathers.

    FWIW our other dc are J a c o b, L y d i a, A d i n a & J o s i a h, and would like to stick with biblical first names.
    TIA

    I like Sim eon most out of the first two. And Ja cob and Jo siah are both nice too.
    I don't really like your girls names, but Lyd ia is ok.

    Some other biblical names I can think of...

    Thomas
    James
    Luke
    Samuel
    Joshua
    Noah
    Benjamin
    Gabriel

    Hannah
    Rebecca
    Sarah
    Eve
    Abigail
    Naomi


    What about words associated with christianity- Faith, Grace, Christian, Joy...

    Well I can't really change the names my children already have but thanks haha...

    We have a large extended family so out of the boys names you've suggested the only one that's not already used is Gabriel and dh vetoed (and possibly Noah as is only a cousin on other side of country's baby).

    Similar with those girls names, Hannah Naomi and Eve are possibilities though if I used eve I think I'd actually have Evangeline with evie for nickname. As for other 'faith related' names yes definitely. Dd2 middle name is grace and if this bub is a girl I'm leaning towards joy as a second middle name because its one of my middle names from my grandmother (margaret is from other grandmother who recently passed away so that's pretty certain).

    Ruth


    Elias
    Adam
