What goes with Leah and Abigail?

[indiechick]

Need something slightly Jewish, not for me, for a friend. What do you think?

[ebonyfish]

I was thinking Rachel too.

miriam
esther
ruth
rebecca

[Edmundo]

Naomi

[BelligerentGhoul]

Esther would be lovely.

I like Naomi (have one) and also like Ruth.

[mollymawk]

Another vote for Rachel

[mollymawk]

(although your friend would need to make sure that, when a young man comes along wanting to marry Rachel, her DH doesn't do a switch for Leah at the last minute...)

[Firawla]

I would probably go for Rebecca. Does it have to be only old testament names? when i had my ds1 i was opposite some v traditional jewish people in the ward (i think orthadox jew) and they went for a flower name i think it was dahlia!

Delilah
Bethany
Miriam
Dinah

[ragged]

Miriam (great minds think alike!), Jasmine, Elizabeth, Grace. Tonnes more here.

[ShoppingDays]

Love Miriam :)

Sarah
Leah
Delilah
Judith
Deborah
Ruth

Or how about Grace, Faith or Sophia (wisdom)?

[tummytickler]

Dalia is a Hebrew name meaning flower, which is lovely.

Judith also lovely.
Dafna
Sara
Shifra (my favourite)

[Firawla]

oh really i didnt know it was hebrew i thought it was just a flower name like lily or rose

i love shifra that is so pretty

[Highlandgirl]

Not biblical but Jessica come to mind...!

[LadyCressida]

I immediately thought Esther

Rachel might not be fair on the older sister because wasn't she is the pretty one whereas no-one wanted Leah...
