🐚 Honoring Martha

Would [name_m]Matthew[/name_m] honor [name_f]Martha[/name_f]? What other boys’ names can you think of to honor [name_f]Martha[/name_f]?

Matthew could definitely work!

Maybe:
[name_m]Martin[/name_m]
[name_m]Matthias[/name_m]
[name_m]Mateo[/name_m]
[name_u]Mattia[/name_u]
[name_m]Nathan[/name_m]/Nathaniel (has ā€œthaā€)
[name_m]Marshall[/name_m]

Martha means ā€œmasterā€ so a name like [name_m]Prince[/name_m](ton), [name_m]King[/name_m](sley), or [name_u]Duke[/name_u] could also work.

I think [name_m]Matthew[/name_m] works. How about [name_m]Arthur[/name_m]?

I think it works. Maybe something like [name_u]March[/name_u]?

I’m glad to hear [name_m]Matthew[/name_m] could work.

@MagnoliaE I have [name_m]Matteo[/name_m] on my list, but I’ve not heard of [name_u]Mattia[/name_u]. [name_m]Matthias[/name_m] (I’ve played around with this one, but not for this reason), [name_m]Martin[/name_m] and [name_m]Marshall[/name_m] hadn’t crossed my mind. [name_m]Nathan[/name_m] and [name_m]Nathaniel[/name_m] aren’t my favorites, but I’ll keep them in mind. I hadn’t thought of using the master connection so I’ll have to look at that.

I hadn’t thought of [name_m]Arthur[/name_m], @floatinthesky, so thank you. It is worth consideration for me.

@ethelmary [name_u]March[/name_u] came up for a girl, but I hadn’t thought of it for a boy.

Matthew definitely works!

[name_m]Marcel[/name_m]
[name_m]Marlon[/name_m]
[name_u]Mars[/name_u]
[name_m]Artem[/name_m]
[name_u]Artemis[/name_u]
[name_m]Thane[/name_m] (a noble title to fit [name_f]Martha[/name_f]’s meaning, and contains the ā€œthaā€)

@acajou [name_u]Mars[/name_u], [name_m]Artem[/name_m] and [name_u]Artemis[/name_u] are great. [name_m]Thane[/name_m] is interesting… I hadn’t heard of it before, but I can’t let it go. [name_m]Marcus[/name_m], [name_m]Marius[/name_m], [name_m]Marco[/name_m] and [name_m]Marcel[/name_m] are on the list as possibilities for Mį“€rcĆ«llį“€, but I hadn’t thought to use them for [name_f]Martha[/name_f] as well. I’m not sure about [name_m]Marlon[/name_m], but will definitely be thinking about it.

Thank you :pray:! [name_m]Matthias[/name_m], [name_m]Matteo[/name_m] and [name_m]Martin[/name_m] have my immediate attention. [name_m]Marvin[/name_m] is definitely up for consideration. I like [name_u]Lincoln[/name_u], but I’m not seeing how it would work… may put it on my list anyway. [name_m]Mervyn[/name_m] is nms and it reminds me too much of the department store.
