I too,...Oh I hope you didn't lose any pictures!<br />I too, believe in the meaning of names- I had trouble with the fact that Rachel meant "Ewe" (female sheep) until my MIL pointed out that it can also be a lamb, and since we want her to be one of Gods little lambs, I was much happier, than saying "Here is my daughter, sheep-girl."<br />I also think you can do damage by naming your children certain things, case in point: growing up I knew sisters Rachel and Leah. Nothing wrong with either of those names, in fact Leah is a favorite girls name of mine, BUT- Rachel was the one everyone loved, and Leah was somewhat forgotten and left out. When I was working, we had a patient whose name was (really, I couldn't make this up!): Morticia.<br />Yeah, as in Adams, and guess what, she was "dark" and kinda scary.<br />Looking forward to more posts!Bonniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01363843039604440511noreply@blogger.com
