we are adopting from guatemala and the baby's birthname is Sara Leticia, her birthmothers name is Rosa, the name I had thought of is Celeste or Celestine. I would like to preserve her birthname or her birthmoms name, but also have a desire to contribute to her name myself. I like Celeste, and like that it as the SA sound from sara and the LES sound from Leticia.
So..
the possibilites:
1. Sara Leticia
2. Sara Rose or Rosa
3. Rosa Sara
4. Celeste Rosa or Rose
5. Celestine Rose
Thanks for your opinions!
Question for you: Did Bmom name the baby or did the lawyer? I ask as many of the children are given names by the lawyer...IMHO that doesn't make the name AS special as one given by the Bmom.
I know MANY transracial adoptees with 3 or 4 names...
How about combining it into something like
Sara Celestine Rose
Have you thought about Celestia? It's a very pretty option :)
Celestia Rose has a nice ring to it
Sara Celeste
and
Sara Rose are always pretty too:)

With our oldest soon to be adopted daughetr we are keeping her middle name and changeing the first,with her sister we are moving her first name to her middle and giving her a new first name with thier brother we are changing it all together as he is a JR. and the baby we got to name.
All that to say have you thought about moving names around? I do like the idea of combining the names.

Celeste has been a favorite of mine since childhood (must've read too many Babar books).
I think the Rosa is SO beautiful!

I love Sara Celeste and call her Celeste or Celeste Sara-Rose/Sararose (it's unique!)
