I’m deciding on a name to fit in with this Jewish-Korean family with the last name Han. The other sisters’ names are Mery (pronounced [name]Mary[/name]), [name]Diana[/name], and [name]Tina[/name]. I’m considering [name]Salome[/name], [name]Hannah[/name], [name]Yael[/name] ([name]Love[/name] this name!), and [name]Anna[/name]. I want a name to reflect her Jewish culture, to have a nice meaning, and be a name that you can see a successful and intelligent girl having.
I’m also open to suggestions.
[name]Salome[/name] is not a name i’ve ever heard used by a Jewish family, even though it has ancient roots. And [name]Yael[/name] would be prettly odd with the rest of that sibset. Something like [name]Anna[/name] or [name]Hanna[/name] would fit a lot better - maybe [name]Sara[/name], [name]Nina[/name], [name]Eva[/name], [name]Tamar[/name]/[name]Tamara[/name].
I’d actually prefer a name that didn’t end in an -a sound. Two of your girls already have that, if you add [name]Anna[/name] to the mix would Mery feel like the odd girl out? So my favorite from you list would be [name]Yael[/name] ([name]Jael[/name] might look more in-tune with your other girls). Other suggestions of mine would be: [name]Hadas[/name], [name]Gili[/name], [name]Noam[/name], or Lior.
