Looking for insights and help naming baby #7!

General Name Discussion
1

Hello!
I am so excited to have found this site! [name]Way[/name] back when baby #1 was expected, my husband and I devoured the book “beyond [name]Jennifer[/name] and [name]Jason[/name]” … well, almost 18 years later, we are now asking for help with our “bonus” baby, with all the updated naming info :slight_smile: We are not going to find out if it’s a boy or a girl as I think I’ll enjoy a last surprise, so if you have ideas for us for a boy or girl, please speak up :slight_smile: Once you see our other children’s names, I’m hoping you’ll get a good feel for what kind of names we like and what might fit well with the others:

[name]John[/name] [name]Emanuel[/name]
[name]Grace[/name] [name]Martha[/name]
[name]Daniel[/name] [name]Nicholas[/name]
[name]Peter[/name] [name]Zechariah[/name]
[name]Samuel[/name] [name]Nathan[/name]
[name]Matthew[/name] [name]Isaac[/name]

Thanks in advance for your time and input!

[name]John[/name], [name]Daniel[/name], [name]Peter[/name], [name]Samuel[/name], [name]Matthew[/name] and

[name]Joshua[/name]
[name]Timothy[/name]
[name]Joseph[/name]

[name]Margaret[/name]

[name]Hope[/name]

[name]John[/name] [name]Emanuel[/name]
[name]Grace[/name] [name]Martha[/name]
[name]Daniel[/name] [name]Nicholas[/name]
[name]Peter[/name] [name]Zechariah[/name]
[name]Samuel[/name] [name]Nathan[/name]
[name]Matthew[/name] [name]Isaac[/name]

And…
I like pps suggestion of [name]Miriam[/name]. [name]Miriam[/name] [name]Joy[/name] or [name]Miriam[/name] [name]Faith[/name] would give your 2nd daughter a good connection with her older sister without being super obvious… [name]Miriam[/name] is a variation of [name]Mary[/name], connected with [name]Martha[/name] through the story of [name]Mary[/name], [name]Martha[/name] & [name]Lazarus[/name], and paired with a virtue mn.
Alternatively, I suggest for a girl:
[name]Anna[/name]
[name]Elizabeth[/name]
[name]Susanna[/name]
[name]Priscilla[/name]
Any of these names would work nicely with a one syllable virtue name.

For a boy:
[name]Isaiah[/name] [name]Mark[/name]
[name]Jonathan[/name] [name]Paul[/name]
[name]David[/name] [name]Joel[/name]
[name]Jethro[/name] [name]Luke[/name]
[name]Timothy[/name] [name]Levi[/name]
[name]Simeon[/name] [name]Bram[/name] ([name]Bram[/name] instead of [name]Abraham[/name])
Congratulations & all the best with #7!
