Well i do quite like the idea of continuing the biblical theme, but i dont think there are any nice girly biblical names so Im open to suggestions ...

I also dont want the names to be too biblical IYSWIM

e.g. Noah and Moses is a no no!

I do think one that doesn't rhyme is better. Did you specifically want a Biblical name?

Rachel
Abigial
Esther

Bethany
Carmel
Charis
Judith
Ruth
Sharon

Jacob
Caleb

girls
Thea ... and thats it really BUT it doesnt go very well with our surname

lol purepurple, I was going to suggest Jonah to keep the sea theme going lol

purepurple · 27/04/2009 09:59

I work with some who has a Noah and a Jonah
Imho they sound too similiar.
Just waiting for her to pop out a Jesus or a Moses next

hockeypuck · 27/04/2009 09:54

more ideas...

Reuben
Isaac
Louis (the french pronounication)

hockeypuck · 27/04/2009 09:49

Zark???? That way you could call them in from the garden "Noah, Zark, come in, it's raining" (sorry, couldn't resist)

On a more serious note, how about another two syllable name, they tend to go well with other two syllable names.

Theo
Charlie

or longer names that can be shortened to two syllables or one?

jellybeans · 27/04/2009 09:29

Joseph
Harry
Leo
Nathan
Niall
Jacob
Oscar
