Baby name finderTip of the day
Don't get in a panic over Christmas. Keep a box and put a little in it every week - small gifts, wine, nibbles, napkins etc. This way, you'll be more relaxed and less skint in December! keriku
Quote of the week
CaptainNancy's (admirably succinct) family rules: "Don't be a dingbat/duffer. Keep calm and carry on. Dream big. Shut up and get on with it."
Recipe of the week
Carmenere's cinder toffee: sweet, sticky, made-in-five-minutes toffee squares that'll spark off a few 'yums' among the 'oohs' and 'aahs' of your little fireworks-watchers.

Love it.
cool
Hate it.
I love it and I love the biblican meaning. However (and I don't live in the UK), it seems to have become very "common".
I love it, it's my ds2 middle name.
I love it! I love the story in the Bible. Levi is a boy's name. Levi was Leah's son, he was her hope that her husband had finally become attached to her 'God has seen me in my misery, and made me fruitful.'
DH said no, however.

Haha.. it would be the biblical version, my other 2 boys have biblical names.
I like it!
It's quite cool, as long as you went for the Biblical version and not "like the jeans".

DH isn't very sure, well nor am I really! But it's so much harder now that the older children are in school etc and we know more children (some nice some not so nice) that all the names have sort of been ''taken''. We don't even know if it's a boy or girl and aren't going to find out, so we need a boys and a girs name. I love my other childrens names and don't want to just settle for a name that I don't love! IYSWIM.
It was an awful name in 1990 and time has done it no favours.
Its one of those names, when you hear a woman in the park calling for LEVI, you cant quite be sure whether she is beckoning her child or her pit bull Staffordshire cross.

For a boy is right. But then Morgan should be male too
MILs cat was called Levi
i have neighbours who have a girl called Levi
(they also have a daughter called Morgan, and dogs called Stella and (AR)Marni)

Not so keen.
