Biblical/ classic name for baby girl #3

Girl Names
1

We are expecting baby #4/baby girl #3 this spring and are struggling to name this little one. All 3 of our kiddos have first names inspired by the Bible and middle names in honor of other family members. Siblings are [name_f]Grace[/name_f] [name_f]Lydia[/name_f] and [name_m]Samuel[/name_m]. Last name is a 3-syllable Scandinavian name ending -son. If this one was a boy we loved [name_u]Micah[/name_u], and I’ve met more girls named [name_u]Micah[/name_u] than boys, but DH isn’t on board.

I feel the need to continue the “theme” but haven’t found one we love just yet. Any suggestions would be welcome!

[name_f]Grace[/name_f], [name_f]Lydia[/name_f] and [name_m]Samuel[/name_m] are lovely names, and understated, rather than glaringly biblical names. I would avoid another virtue name such as [name_f]Hope[/name_f], [name_f]Mercy[/name_f], [name_f]Honor[/name_f], etc. since you have a [name_f]Grace[/name_f]. With that in mind, I think these names might work with your style:

[name_f]Noelle[/name_f] - love!
[name_f]Susannah[/name_f] - love!
[name_f]Eva[/name_f]/[name_f]Eve[/name_f]/[name_f]Evangeline[/name_f]/a
[name_f]Leah[/name_f]
[name_f]Angela[/name_f], [name_f]Angelica[/name_f], [name_f]Angelina[/name_f]
[name_f]Bathsheba[/name_f] (more of gp for me, but I love it!)
[name_f]Philomena[/name_f]
[name_f]Salome[/name_f] or [name_u]Simone[/name_u] - I love these names, but might be a mouthful with [name_m]Samuel[/name_m]
[name_f]Celestine[/name_f]
[name_f]Josette[/name_f]
[name_f]Philippa[/name_f] ([name_f]Pippa[/name_f] as a nn!)
[name_f]Seraphina[/name_f]
[name_f]Magdalena[/name_f]
[name_f]Justine[/name_f]
[name_f]Gabrielle[/name_f]/a
[name_f]Anneliese[/name_f]
[name_f]Corinne[/name_f]
[name_f]Natalie[/name_f]
[name_f]Thomasina[/name_f]

[name_f]Abigail[/name_f]
[name_f]Delilah[/name_f] (not the best namesake, but still a lovely name)
[name_f]Miriam[/name_f]
[name_f]Mary[/name_f]
[name_f]Selah[/name_f]
[name_f]Priscilla[/name_f]

[name_f]Bethany[/name_f]

[name_f]Grace[/name_f], [name_f]Lydia[/name_f], [name_m]Samuel[/name_m] and

[name_f]Phoebe[/name_f]
[name_f]Esther[/name_f]
[name_f]Bethany[/name_f]
[name_f]Eliza[/name_f]
[name_f]Eva[/name_f]
[name_f]Anna[/name_f]

I don’t think grace is necessarily biblical but if you want a biblical name:

[name_u]Mika[/name_u] (very similar to [name_u]Micah[/name_u] pronounced me-kah (I know an Israeli girl named this and it’s beautiful)

[name_f]Abigail[/name_f] -would fit very well but I don’t particularly like it

[name_f]Miriam[/name_f]-love this name and love her character

Joheved/Yoheved- I think this name is super cool

[name_f]Sarai[/name_f]- a twist on [name_f]Sarah[/name_f], was the characters original name. Pronounced Suh-rye

[name_f]Delilah[/name_f]- I think this has to do with the Bible? I don’t know. But it fits well!!

[name_f]Eve[/name_f]/[name_f]Eva[/name_f]- I prefer [name_f]Eve[/name_f], but a timeless choice

[name_f]Leah[/name_f]- not too obviously biblical, but a cool gal from the Bible, it’s better pronounced [name_m]Lay[/name_m]-uh

[name_u]Jesse[/name_u]- A guy originally but this name can be used on a girl or spelt [name_u]Jessie[/name_u]. Cute either way.

[name_f]Naomi[/name_f]- [name_f]Ruth[/name_f]’s awesome mother in law, fits very well with your names!

[name_m]Ezra[/name_m]/[name_u]Ezri[/name_u]- a more masculine name but technically unisex. I love it on a girl.

I love [name_u]Micah[/name_u] for your boys’ choice- fits perfectly with your kids- and strongly prefer it as a male name! Here are some classic + biblical ideas for girls:

[name_f]Grace[/name_f], [name_m]Samuel[/name_m], and…

[name_f]Hannah[/name_f]- this was my immediate thought- I think it works flawlessly
[name_f]Bethany[/name_f]- this would also be perfect. something about it flows so well with [name_f]Grace[/name_f] and [name_m]Samuel[/name_m] and it is also modern yet classic and an understated Biblical choice, with cute nicknames as well!
[name_f]Leah[/name_f]- just like [name_f]Hannah[/name_f], would fit beautifully
[name_f]Eliza[/name_f]- just like [name_f]Bethany[/name_f], an underrated/understated Biblical name that would round out your sibset!

Those four are my favorites for you, but more ideas:
[name_f]Abigail[/name_f]
[name_f]Joanna[/name_f]
[name_f]Ruth[/name_f]
[name_f]Veronica[/name_f]
[name_f]Esther[/name_f]
[name_f]Claudia[/name_f]
[name_f]Tabitha[/name_f]
[name_f]Angela[/name_f]/[name_f]Angelina[/name_f]
