Keturah

[17caterpillars1mouse]

Thoughts on Keturah? Do you know any? Nickname ideas?

I like it. Rahrah/Rara and Ketty/Kitty are nice nns :)

Kezia, Zipporah, Yael and Kerenza (I know, not biblical) have a similar feel imo.

I like it with Kitty for short.

I like it--what's its origin?
I'd go for Ketty rather than Kitty as a short version
(my autocorrect suggested Jetty!)

I like it. It's in my family tree a few times in the early 1800s. As pps have said, the nickname could be Kitty or Ketty.

I looked up the meaning a while ago and iirc, it means "incense" and is from the bible.

It sounds like a Thundercat.
But that's probably just because I've never heard it before. If it's a known name in your culture I'm sure it's fine.

It might get shortened to Ket, as in ketamine but if you're not worried about that then it's nice

Keziah ?

Ive never heard of this name, what are it’s origins?

Keturah is biblical / OT.:)

A wife of Abraham (who sent away their sons), I believe...

Sorry but it looks like it sounds like catarrh

Awful ( sorry )

I'm not a fan, sorry.

My nephew had one in his class about 10 years ago never come across another with my own children but it is unusual (enough for me to remember anyway)

I know a teenage Keturah, she has siblings with also unusual biblical names so it doesn't stand out in the family. She gets sick of explaining / spelling as most people have never heard of it.

Oh no, the first thing I thought was Ket, as in the common nasty drug. And the boys who walk around with hairstyles called ket wigs, sorry OP avoid avoid avoid

That would be an unfortunate nickname.

Ket is synonymous with Ketamine to me, so I wouldn't. Ket/Ketty would be awful nicknames!

I love Kezia though.

Keturah also sounds rather like "Caterer" to me.

So on that basis, no.

It's nice if it's pronounced like Ke-too-rah. And not caterer

Not a fan. It sounds like a cross between a sneeze and a cough.

Not keen, sorry.

It sounds like someone sneezing....

Sorry I wouldn't choose due to pronunciation /drug nickname/spelling issues :(

the nickname could be Kitty or Ketty

You cannot be serious.

People who have done ketamine are ketty.
