Most of my angel babies were named at the moment of losing them some I found it way too difficult to. I've now got to a point in healing where I feel ready to name them all but need some help. Can anyone think of any names with spiritual meanings

I named my angel baby Merle because it means blackbird and blackbirds make me think of them

I'm so sorry for your losses OP Flowers

I've lost 3 and have no living children. Do you know the genders?

The word angel in other languages?

I've always loved these sand names. My cousin had one for her baby Lily and it is beautiful. I'm not quite ready yet, but would like one too.

So sorry for your losses as well, all of the names you've picked out for your angels are so gorgeous. I didn't know the gender of any of my babies so I've decided to give each of my babies two names each one for each sex and awww that name in the sand idea is so sweet

Sorry for the misunderstanding, those are not names I chose for my losses. I thought that YOU were asking for suggestions of angel baby names? They were just some ideas that YOU might consider.

Not a special meaning, but I used my maiden surname, and another family surname as gender-neutral names.
