Dinah

I'm liking it a lot since reading the Red Tent.

Zillah was mentioned here and that is the name of one of her 'mothers', her father had four wives

Mary
Esther
Naomi
Leah (means cow)

just to point out Rebecca (or Rebekah) is a nice name .. i know its mine! but i would only name your child this if you can cope with the shortening Becky .. i absolutely hate being called becky and my mom hates it when people call me becky,so we have spent the whole of my life correcting people who automatically shorten my name even though i have just introduced myself as Rebecca

mumofdjandbabies · 06/09/2008 20:17

LittlePushka · 07/09/2008 23:41

Love Faith!

Love Hope too

Those were my grils names until DS x 2 knocked them out of the running

GrimmaTheNome · 07/09/2008 23:44

Don't suppose Hepzibah is due a relaunch (even shortened to Eppie like in Silas Marner)

LittlePushka · 08/09/2008 00:06

(Love Silas Marner...!)
