though my notd was levi, i chose ransom levi as my cotd, and since this morning, i’ve been imagining how well it would fit on my own little boy. it’s passed the veto test with my fiancé, and is a very likely contender on our short list. since we adore this name, i thought it would be fun to see what y’all would name this hypothetical child’s hypothetical siblings. would you go biblical? spiritual word names? or something entirely different?
i think i’d opt for hosanna olive for a sister and shepherd micah for a brother.
as always, thank you for humoring me, and have a wonderful rest of your weekend! 🫶🏼
Personally I think I’d go with something Biblical, vintage, and unexpected, but not wordy, like…
[name_m]Ransom[/name_m] and [name_m]Josiah[/name_m]
[name_m]Ransom[/name_m] and [name_m]Silas[/name_m]
[name_m]Ransom[/name_m] and [name_m]Jethro[/name_m]
[name_m]Ransom[/name_m] and Ada/h
[name_m]Ransom[/name_m] and [name_f]Martha[/name_f]
[name_m]Ransom[/name_m] and [name_f]Selah[/name_f]
[name_m]Ransom[/name_m] and [name_u]Shiloh[/name_u]
Your [name_m]Ransom[/name_m] [name_u]Levi[/name_u], [name_f]Hosanna[/name_f] [name_f]Olive[/name_f] and [name_m]Shepherd[/name_m] [name_u]Micah[/name_u] are brilliant!
We named our firstborn [name_m]Ransom[/name_m], and I’d love to see it used more!
He is [name_m]Ransom[/name_m] E@rl.
We named our second son T0bias [name_m]Arnold[/name_m], and our daughter [name_f]Deliverance[/name_f] El@nor. [name_u]Baby[/name_u] brother due next month is probably [name_m]Zebedee[/name_m] [name_u]John[/name_u]. Brannoc [name_u]John[/name_u] is our backup choice. The boys have family middle names.
[name_f]Hosanna[/name_f] has been on our radar! Our girl list this pregnancy included [name_u]Ruby[/name_u] (probably what we would have ended up choosing), [name_f]Zipporah[/name_f] (husband vetoed as a first), [name_f]Rosemary[/name_f], [name_f]Linnea[/name_f], and [name_f]Eve[/name_f].
Oh also, @EagleEyes, we named the baby I miscarried at 7 weeks [name_u]Shiloh[/name_u] So imo it definitely works as a sibling to [name_m]Ransom[/name_m].
I just noticed [name_f]Deliverance[/name_f] was added to the database! Yesterday! Yay!! (I don’t think of it as having to do with being freed of evil spirits, but I suppose one could…)
Forgot to add, @emeraldsea, I’ve also seen [name_m]Shepherd[/name_m] and [name_u]Shiloh[/name_u] as brothers more than once in real life.
