When my first daughter was finally born, it just didn't seem like *her* name, although I had waited so long for her. We gave her two first names, AnneMarie, because that was what was whispered in my ear by her guardian angel. When my second daughter was born, no matter where my husband and I looked, we couldn't come up with anything. In the delivery room, waiting for her to come, my husband said we needed a strong, beautiful biblical name, and flipping through, Naomi just jumped right out at him. She is a little Naomi for sure: beautiful, and quirky. Funny enough, we rarely call her that, she goes by Momo. <br /><br />Sorry for that, it is so fun to think through how your children came by their true names. I know this little one of yours will have a beautiful one.Rebekah Eshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07405354417859464849noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3363247083579931414.post-13084661456267735292013-02-16T02:29:38.927-05:002013-02-16T02:29:38.927-05:00Names are so difficult, so important.

Nice, beautiful even. Until he was born and they asked us what his name was and my husband pulled out a name from discussions weeks before: Simon. And he is, he is just so wonderfully sweet Simon all the way. <br /><br />I wish you lots of luck finding the right name!Melissanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3363247083579931414.post-85741552682905262932013-02-16T01:37:40.063-05:002013-02-16T01:37:40.063-05:00I find naming really hard.

I agree that naming a child is hard, because it's a choice we make as parents, but something our child has to live with forever. Good luck on finding that perfect name for that very special, one of a kind daughter.Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04153490125731724691noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3363247083579931414.post-1728398047776298282013-02-15T15:14:57.103-05:002013-02-15T15:14:57.103-05:00Sending thoughts as wait for her name to come to y...Sending thoughts as wait for her name to come to you.

Then when the baby is born and we find out the sex and get a look at him or her we choose the name that is best. With the first three I had a good sense of what we were getting before they were born, but I thought Jack was going to be a girl!

I knew a lady who named her daughter fawn. really? so if she became a professional person Fawn would be on her door? <br />My own daughter is Sarah, I loved the name and I even have a daughter in law now who is Sarah.Thoughts for the dayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07166340365607117445noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3363247083579931414.post-45622426339575294692013-02-15T07:53:54.860-05:002013-02-15T07:53:54.860-05:00I'll pray you find that perfect name. We just ...I'll pray you find that perfect name. We just found out we're expecting our fourth. The hard part for us is to find a middle name. We always choose a grandparent or great grandparent who lived their lives for the Lord. One day I plan on putting pictures of their namesake next to their picture in a shadowbox. Along with a keepsake- an old recipe in their handwriting, the bulletin from their funeral that shares their testimony etc... I want my children to have a strong connection to the people who helped shape their parents. This seemed like a small way to start that. Good luck! Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
