Hi, we are waiting on the birth of a baby and are discussing names- always a sore point between my hubby and myself! I am very much into the meaning of a name and he could often care less. Here's my question; the name we want to use for a boy means "gift" in Hebrew. I loved this idea at first, even considered making the name a little longer to translate to "mother's gift," but now I am rethinking it a bit; we are CC, baby is AA-- is it too much of a constant reminder that he would have been GIVEN to us or is it a) obvious enough anyway, b) he won't think about it, regardless. Whattaya think?(I think I will post this on the main board, too, so it gets some notice.) Thanks!

What ever name you pick, just remember the baby lives with it their whole life. I am jewish and have been waiting a year for my prayers to come true. I thought that in our religon/tradition you are suppose to name after someone who has passed away in order to honor them, and carry their spirit with you and your family? Usually you take the first letter of their name and choose a name. Then make sure there is a hebrew name that goes with it? If I am wrong, please let me know. Good Luck, and god bless....
