DH and I have been trying to think of girls names with no luck. We would like to give our LO a Hebrew name but do not want it to be too difficult or unusual in English.

We are team yellow and the boy?s name is pretty much finalised. Just don?t know what to do about the girl?s name. Please take a look at our list ? not overly sold on any of them TBH but would welcome your thoughts and suggestions.

Ariella (could shorten to Ella if she wanted a more ?English? sounding name)
Ofira
Orli
Chanah (Could be Hannah in English)
Ayala

Or should we just go for an English name and be done with it? Or hope that it?s a boy and stop worrying!

Thanks Basking - the problem with names like Ruth and Sara is that they have already been taken by varous members of my family! We have a tradition where we do not name after the living so it makes it pretty difficult to find an English name that doesn't already have a person attached!
