Hello everybody, I hope you’re all having a lovely beginning of your week!
This is inspired by @seawillow and her lovely new combinations
I’m looking for unique [name_m]Saint[/name_m] names, not your average [name_m]John[/name_m], [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f], [name_f]Catherine[/name_f], and [name_m]Luke[/name_m] (though these names are lovely!) I would love to use some in my combos since my second middle name (and Catholic name) is [name_f]Cecilia[/name_f].
If you have any other religious name ideas please include those as well!
Thanks in advance xx

She is often confused with St. Osyth or Ositha, an important English Saint with a town named after her.
Zita entered domestic service at the age of twelve and served the same family for almost fifty years. Through her diligence and fidelity, she became a tru...
