Does anybody know an Elijah?
What are his siblings called?
Or if you don't know an Elijah what names do you feel could work for siblings?
Thanks!

I know an Elijah with a brother named George.

And one with sisters named Rebecca/Rebekka (I don't know how they spell it, tbh...) and Elizabeth.

Really like Elijah and Cherith.
Not heard that name before ELEPHANT.

I know:

Elijah and Noah
Elijah, Nia and Oscar.
Elijah and Eleanor.

I do know another one but can't remember his siblings names I think one is Rayna (?)

It's a beautiful name and I think will match a lot of things as it is one of those names that doesn't disclose class/ethnicity/age etc.

Thank you all.
Lots to have a think about.
I like Isaac, Noah (too popular?), Oscar, Ruth, Eleanor, Jacob.

Would you go for another E initial? Or steer clear?
Would you go for another 3 syllable name? Would you go for the similar ending - 'ah' sound?

I would honestly choose, whatever name you love.
You'll know if it doesn't go with Elijah.
Let us know what you decide.
On your list above, I like Ruth, Isaac and Jacob.

I don't know any Elijahs. But I think Toby (Tobias) or Zack (Isaac/Zachary) would go well.

I wouldn't go out of my way to make them "match" by choosing another name beginning in "E" or with 3 syllables or ending in "-ah". Just pick a name you like that works with your surname!
