    Emerald Nevaeh Rose

    EMERALD: English name derived from the name of the precious green gemstone, the birthstone of May, from Greek smaragdos, meaning "green gem." The emerald was once believed to have the power to protect chastity, ward off evil spirits, cure dysentery, epilepsy, and help poor eyesight.
    NEVAEH: Modern English name created by spelling "heaven" backwards.
    ROSE: Today, this English name is most often given as a flower name, or used as a short form of the herb name Rosemary. However, it was in use throughout the Middle Ages (long before herb and flower names became popular) and probably originated as a short form of longer Germanic names containing the word hrod, meaning "horse."

    well, she is definitely our little "gem" - and reading further, she's doing her best to protect my chastity!! lol
    Nevaeh was used to honor her angel siblings - she does that with every single breath she takes.
    we used Rose for the plant reference - she is pretty, but *****ly when she wants to be - and she has a definite aroma sometimes....

    Hmm...
    Jazmyne Louise - Jazmyne (Persian) Modern day spelling of Jasmine, meaning - flower. I named her for that reason. Jasmine is my favourite scent & it seemed perfect for a little girl
    Louise (teutonic) famous in battle, warrior maiden. Hmm... she is very argumentative. Maybe I brought that on myself

    Brianna Rose - Brianna (Gaelic) Strong, honourable, noble. Well she is a very strong willed child...
    Rose (latin, french, scottish, greek) Named for the flower. Again, I think flower names are fitting for girls. Open & pretty iykwim.

    Jesse Andrew - Jesse (Hebrew) Gift giver, wealthy. Lets hope so Just looked again & the meaning I found before, the reason I know they change, is Gods gift. He definetely is
    Andrew (Greek) Manly, courageous.

    I think the meanings change depending what site I look at from memory. We chose their names because we liked tham, but I like the meanings behind them, especially DS's.
    They definetely suit them!

    for a second there i thought u were looking at names possibly for another baby to come..

    'Grace hope'- " A variant of the Irish name Grianne, meaning love" and Beautiful, elegant.( i definently think she is beautiful )

    It was originally going to be Hope Grace (probably corny) but she was my 'hope' to keep going when things got really tough getting through my hsc whilst pregnant with her, and having xp leave etc so i wanted to incorporate hope into her name but thought it was abit much so found the name Grace which ive always loved and used hope as the middle name

    also i loved Princess Grace kelly, i must say Grace is deffinently alittle princess thats for sure so thename now definently suits her lol

    so i guess in a way
