Thoughts on Girls

[amvancura]

We want a strong name for our girl. We like biblical figures and strong women in literature. Here is our list so far:

Lydia- Musical reference, biblical reference and coinage means wealth. Also sounds like mil's name.
Jordan- We are going to baptize her with Jordan river water and Great Gatsby
Phoebe
Margaret nn Daisy- Great Gatsby, my favorite book
Miriam (Need nicknames for this one though)- Mae, Mimi, Mira, Mia?
Susanna or Lily- honors my mom and his grandma
Naomi- Don't like the imoan connection
Ruth- Not much
Bethany
Shiloh
Hannah

Name must sound good with Easton.

I like lydia, Margaret, Miriam, Susanna, Hannah.
Haha I didn't even catch the Imoan thing.
Some other strong sounding female names
Catherine (I don't believe biblical but it is a saint's name)
Alexandra (Saint names and a lot of Historical/literary connection)
Victoria (historical/literary connection)

Lydia is great; there is an old song "Lydia the tattooed lady" you will run across if you watch "Philadelphia Story", Not a fan of Jordan. Miri is cute for Miriam. Mary is ripe for a comeback,Damaris, or Shoshana form of Susannah.

I am probably going to name a girl Ruth for a middle name because my grandma's name is Ruth, I am thinking Shelley Ruth. Also
