Chloe, Jacob, Isobel and ?

[sassy34264]

They are all bible names-so i would like to keep to that- but i don't mind if it's traditional.

My short list is:

Girls-
Elizabeth
Eve
Hannah
Rose

Boys-
Eli
Issac
Jobe
Joseph
Nathaniel
Noah
Tobias

Unfortunately dp not overly keen on some of them, so any additional suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Oh dear! That's the main reason I'm very glad that DC3 turned out to be a girl - if she'd been a boy then he still wouldn't have a name now I don't think .

Chloe is not a Biblical name. It is Greek for a nice type of grass.

was going to suggest Issac without looking as it fits nicely (I'm not religious) Bethany is religious too. Any good? Haven't read previous btw

aaa its in the bible- corinthians 1:11 in the context of "the house of Chloe".

Kezia
Susanna
Deborah
Judith
Miriam
Damaris
Persis (the beloved Persis - what a lovely reference)
Magdalene/Magda/Magdalen
Ruth
Michal
[Sheba -a sort of cheat - nn of bathsheba?]
Jael (i wouldn't because of ge tout of jail free..)

the female variants of the male names? eg Thomasina/Thomasine/Tamsin; Petra/Peta; Andrea/Androulla

If not directly biblical, continuing that theme: Natalya/Natasha; Anastasia/Pascale

Your DCs have lovely names!

From your list I prefer

Girls

1. Eve is lovely 2. Elizabeth is a classic - but a lot longer than your other DCs names, will it fit in? (suppose that doesn't really matter.)

Boys

1 Joseph/Nathaniel are both equally great names, with the nicknames Joe and Nate. 2. Eli is quite nice.

Don't like Noah at all. Reminds me of a bad character in Dickens - Noah Claypole in David Copperfield?

Martha

Rose

Issac
Joseph
Noah

Leona
Eliza
Philippa
Bryony
Josephine

just wanted to thank everyone for their suggestions.

i had a little girl, who had no name for a few days!

eventually agreed on - Eva Rose.

Very pretty! Congrats on the arrival of your new daughter.
