Taking myself away from current terrible situation, which name is your favourite, I am leaning towards to Amara it means grace I'm my language. Alexandra whilst a lovely name means defender of men which I may be childish but not too keen on men right now.

Jollyjester you have good taste in names.

My favourite I think is Amara as well not sure of a middle name . I like the sound of Amara Grace, but Amara actually means grace in my language, any suggestions on a middle name to go with Amara.

Salome is my favourite by far. Gorgeous!

ChardonnayKnickertonSmythe · 05/05/2017 20:27

Amara sounds like a drink.

3catsandcounting · 05/05/2017 20:29

We have an Amara in our family. I've never heard it used before, or since. Beautiful!

Is amara the name of that website that does discount designer home furnishings?

ignore me, I nearly called my daughter Isis

FeedTheSharkAndItWillBite · 05/05/2017 20:35

Amara reminds me of amaretto. Or amaro/a (which means bitter in Italian).

Alexandra is really lovely. I also like Olivia.

ChardonnayKnickertonSmythe · 05/05/2017 20:45

It does mean bitter, does't it?

sherbertlemon17 · 05/05/2017 21:24

Amara Lily?

HostaFireAndIce · 05/05/2017 21:36

I suppose it has different meanings in different languages.
What language is the Grace meaning in?

FeedTheSharkAndItWillBite · 05/05/2017 21:51

No Amara means grace

Depends on the language you're speaking, OP. But I understand that the name means something very positive to you and it does sound lovely imo.

I really like Salome, Alexandra and Olivia.

user1493567361 · 05/05/2017 21:56

Ooh I like the name Cherish as well !!!
