roughly a year ago, i lost an my baby in utero. though it was too early to know much about my little angel, i have a feeling that she was a girl. i spoke to my priest about this & he told me that naming her would be the first step in overcoming grief [name_f][/name_f]— could you all help me with that? [name_m]God[/name_m] bless you all. i truly adore names to do with mary; here are just a few; please help me or give me more suggestions!
[name_f]Celestia[/name_f] [name_f][/name_f]- I’m so sorry for your loss. It feels as if I could have written this post 6 years ago after losing my daughter, [name_f]Briar[/name_f]. [name_f]My[/name_f] priest encouraged me to do the same, and I named her [name_f]Briar[/name_f] [name_m]Roscoe[/name_m] and it has stayed in my heart ever since. I’m sure our girls are playing together in God’s [name_m]Kingdom[/name_m] [name_f][/name_f] I’m going to have a think and pray over some names for you and I’ll get back to you soon!

This verse helped me a lot during my grief journey, and perhaps it will you too.

I am not Catholic so not terribly familiar with [name_f]Marian[/name_f] names, but I agree that [name_f]Pia[/name_f] Beatissima is absolutely beautiful! [name_f][/name_f] I also like Addolorata a lot.
[name_f][/name_f]
I’m also quite fond of these, hopefully they’re of some help to you!

Maris/Stella [name_f]Maris[/name_f] [name_f][/name_f][name_f]Dolores[/name_f] (love this with the nn Lola!) [name_f][/name_f][name_f]Amparo[/name_f] [name_f][/name_f][name_f]Candelaria[/name_f] [name_f][/name_f][name_f]Gracia[/name_f] [name_f][/name_f][name_f]Immaculata[/name_f] [name_f][/name_f][name_f]Maristella[/name_f]
I am so sorry for your loss [name_f][/name_f] These are all such thoughtful, lovely names. I’m especially fond of [name_f]Pia[/name_f] Beatissima. @ashthedreamer[name_f][/name_f] 's suggestion of [name_f]Immaculata[/name_f] & @Johannaa[name_f][/name_f] 's of [name_f]Gloria[/name_f] are beautiful as well [name_f][/name_f] I also wanted to suggest Mercia, [name_m]Fidelis[/name_m], [name_m]Evensong[/name_m], [name_f]Candela[/name_f], [name_f]Esperanza[/name_f], [name_f]Lucia[/name_f], Tilma, & Pieta. Ultimately, my advice would be to go with the name you feel most connected to
I’m truly sorry for your loss. Naming your little one is a beautiful way to honor her memory and start healing. Since you love names connected to [name_f]Mary[/name_f] and those with deep spiritual meaning, I’d be happy to help with more suggestions inspired by [name_f]Marian[/name_f] titles and virtues.
[name_f][/name_f]
Here are some ideas that resonate with what you shared:
[name_f][/name_f]
[name_f][/name_f]
[name_f]Maria[/name_f] Addolorata[name_f][/name_f] (Our [name_f]Lady[/name_f] of Sorrows)
If you like more classical Italian or Spanish variants:
[name_f][/name_f]
[name_f][/name_f]
[name_f]Concetta[/name_f][name_f][/name_f] (meaning “conceived,” connected to the Immaculate Conception)
[name_f][/name_f]
[name_f]Beata[/name_f][name_f][/name_f] or Beatissima[name_f][/name_f] (Blessed)
[name_f][/name_f]
[name_f]Engracia[/name_f][name_f][/name_f] (Grace, as you mentioned)
[name_f][/name_f]
[name_f][/name_f]
Would you like suggestions that combine these with other meaningful words, or perhaps something more poetic? Also, would you prefer names that are more traditional, or something unique but still Marian-inspired?
