    What is the MEANING and is it fitting?

    Jade Freya... Jade was XPs choice (he dreamt of a girl called jade his whole life) and only meaning I can find is that of the jade stone.
    Freya was a Norse goddess of love and beauty who took the slain warriors to their afterlife full of virgins I love Viking mythology and thinks it's a beautiful name but XP wouldn't let it be her 1st name

    This could take a while!!

    Aricyn Michael
    Aricyn: Scandinavian meaning the Eternal King's son. DH may think he's the king, but really, everyone knows the Queen rules this house We liked it because of something that happened during my pregnancy and a consequent dream of mine, we felt that Aricyn was being looked after by a higher power. We changed the spelling because we thought it looked better with a y in it.
    Michael: It is of Hebrew origin, and the meaning of Michael is "who resembles God?". Biblical: Michael is the archangel (chief or principal angel) who defeats the dragon. We chose it because DH was supposed to be called Michael when he was born, but his brother hated it, so he got called Craig instead - and DH absolutely loves Michael Jordan. But still, the fact that it still has something regarding a higher power in its meaning is pretty special I think.

    Mehkelti Addisyn Jayne:
    Mehkelti: The meaning of the name Mykelti is Who Is Like God because it was created name by actor Mykelti Williamson from his first name and middle initial: "Michael T." We first saw it and thought the pronounciation was how we say it, not Michael T, so we fell in love with the name and changed the spelling to be how we said it. I sorta like the same link between her and DS though being a Michael, I think its cool.
    Addisyn: Addisyn is a respelling of the surname Addison, which means 'son of Adam'. The creation has been influenced by the modern trend of replacing vowels with the letter Y, believed by some to "make a name (more) feminine". This is also touted as "making a name more unique", but in 2006 the spelling Addisyn shot out of nowhere to become the 612th most popular name for girls in the US.We liked how it rhymed with Aricyn, thought it connected the two children. We also liked the name of Grey's Anatomy. I don't think the son of Adam bit is really fitting
    Jayne: meaning "God is Gracious". We added this name because I felt she was going to be my only girl, and Jayne is my middle name, my nan's middle name, and I wanted to keep it going. Now that she is here, not sure if it is fitting or not but we are very blessed to have her in our lives. A psychic told me some stuff about her yesterday that I believe, so I think she is a gift from the universe bestowed upon us.. so not sure if that helps with the meaning.. LOL

    Eden Elisabeth Grace:
    Eden: Hebrew, meaning Delight. She truly is my little delight, she is very happy and enjoyable about 99% of the time DH found another meaning of it, being Place of Paradise - and we don't want her to be that for any teenage boys, but if she brings others comfort with her prescence, well thats pretty fitting I reckon.
    Elisabeth: My God is a vow. Hmm.. well we're not religious but she might be!! We named her after my mum (Elizabeth) and changed the z to an s cos I think it looks prettier.
    Grace: It is of Latin origin, and the meaning of Grace is "favor; blessing". She truly is our blessing, so yes, very fitting. But we actually named her that because DH's mum's middle name is Grace so I thought I would be fair and give both grandmothers a mention in her name.

    We named our son "Cameron" because we liked the name. It means "crooked nose" which most definaltey does not apply to him.

    DF chose DD's 1st name and we gave her my middle name. We didn't pick DD's name based on meanings.

    Sophie Louise:
    Sophie (Sophia) means: greek- wisdom and Louise means: teutonic (?)- a famous warrior maiden. The female form of Louis.

    DD's name definately suits her, she seems to already think she knows everything and likes to argue

    Maxwell Benjamin:

    Maxwell: Great Spring (Max's Well) - but ithis is actually my maiden name so that is where it gets is meaning really. Benjamin - Son of my Right Hand - but really is just DH name to us He suits his name, but not by it's meaning.

    Darcie Elizabeth:

    Darcie: Dark (or Of the Dark) Well at the moment she is a child 'of th dark' coz she keeps waking up too much at night! When initially chosing it I thought of it as in dark features, hair, eyes etc. Thought for sure she'd come out looking like Max (and me ) But NOOOO she is a blondie like her Dad, so no her meaning of her name as I'd thought of it doesn't fit! Elizabeth - named after her aunty

    Isaac - Hebrew meaning laughter

    He's always been a very happy little boy and laughs alot. He has also brought alot of laughter into our lives. So yes it's very fitting.

    Neil - Gaelic; from Niall.
    Meaning: champion/ passionate/ "cloud".

    I think we'll have to wait a bit longer to find out if this suits him or not. He does like giving lots of cuddles and kisses though.
    Not too sure what to make of "cloud".

    We picked Isaac because it was the only name we agreed on and Neil as it is DF's and FIL's middle name and we wanted to carry on the tradition. I dont think we'd even looked up the meanings until now.
