Waking Early

Here’s an ongoing list.

Input and further suggestions welcome! I’ve put current favorites in bold.

Thea: gift from God

Ilsa: God is my oath

Odelia (variant of Othella): wealthy

Oralee: my light (after my blog!! hehe! just kidding, I wouldn’t do that)

Jasmyne (variant of the Jasmine)… I think it’s a lovely spelling and have always liked the name, but it’s massively popular right now.

Carly: German origin. feminine version of Charles. This would be for Darren’s favorite great uncle, Carl who died shortly before our wedding. He was 92.

Girl middle name ideas:

Hadassa: Myrtle tree (Hebrew origin)…sort of a name for my mom! She always wanted to name a girl Hadassa (ha DAH sah) but got voted down each time. Which is so unfair because she was the one who went through the birthing! I know it isn’t the best choice for our last name, because that’s also an H.

Annalise: Combination name composed of Anne (gracious, full of grace) and Liese (God is my oath). German/Dutch/Scandinavian/Nordic origin.
