My husband and I plan to start a family next year. I feel strongly that we should honor our family members in our children’s names. My husband is Jewish and his family does not agree with naming a child after a living relative, so he does not have as many names from which to choose. My family has Italian and [name_m]French[/name_m] ancestry.
Can you please help me to pick out a few combination based on the names shared here and our naming preferences so far? [name_m]New[/name_m] name recommendations are appreciated! Thanks so much.
