names question
We have a new boy, to be born in early March. When discussing names, my wife and I went through baby names books and websites, just like many people. It was neat to learn what different names mean, but I couldn't find any information resource which would give you possible names based on meanings. In other words, I could find out that Sarah means "princess", but if I knew I wanted to name my kid a name which means "princess", how would I go about finding a list of possible names for that meaning? For the record, I am looking for a boy name which is biblical or derived from a bible name, and which means something along the lines of "abundant", "fulfilled", or "overflowing". |

I can't help you, but just couldn't resist replying. I think your choices of
meanings are all wonderful and very appropriate ;) Good luck!

Wow! This is a great site--thanks. Of course, I won't be willing to name my son Jethro, because of the Bodine/Clampett implications. But still a great help, this site.

Of course, I won't be willing to name my son Jethro, because of the

There is a book by Kolatch called The Name Dictionary, which is a hebrew dictionary of names. YOu can read each entry for meanings and it also has the relationship of male/female names, plus related sounding names. So, if you look up Rose, you'll find an entry for Shoshana (hebrew for Rose), the male equivalent if there is one, and related names. It also has a very in depth explanation of the meaning and etymology of the name. Marjorie |

On Biblical names, I have a great great grandmother born in the early 1840s
whose name was Azubah Zipporah Dewhurst. Her siblings? Also largely Biblical: Zerah Zuriel, Alexandrine Zetilla and, oddly, plain old Eden Elizabeth (aka Ada). Which actually has a lot to do with where Holly Alexandra Eden came from -- I didn't quite think I could sneak Alexandrine past dh, and he totally nixed Zetilla (Tilly). Azubah Zipporah's children, born in the mid 1860s -- Frances Zipporah (known as Fanny) Elizabeth Sarah (my great grandmother; known as Sarah) Rachel Alice (rather a nice one, that, I always think) and, of course, Zetilla (known as Tilly, the tragic one who died "young" -- 60, it turned out when I investigated -- as my mother was frequently reminded by her 70-80 year old grandmother and aunts.) Rachel's daughter? A last Zetilla. And someone had, I believe, another Azubah Zipporah. And so ended the freakish streak. The last couple of generations of women in my family have followed a tradition of late-ish childbearing (Azubah did have Sarah at about 21, but Sarah was 36, my mother was 30 and I was 34 -- 39 with Holly) ... so we go back a *long* way in not many generations! --Janet Elliot, Hanna, Connor (10/21/96) and Holly (4/4/01) "Chotii" wrote in message ...
