Steve actually chose Josiah's name while we were at Bible College, and because we both liked Joe as well I was really happy with it - plus it has an excellent meaning 'the Lord Supports' which is just what I needed through the whole pregnancy having lost Joel beforehand. Anyway, I'm wittering now - but if the scans had been wrong and Josiah had been a girl he would have been Rachel!Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17414090970261215657noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6813696.post-1098816787308117782004-10-26T19:53:00.000+01:002004-10-26T19:53:00.000+01:00You and I must share similar taste in names! My Ab...You and I must share similar taste in names! My Abigail is Abigail Ruth too! Phoebe was nearly Phoebe Anna, but when I discovered Anna meant 'Grace' , I decided Phoebe Grace worked better! Josiah is a name I love and I have often envied your having a son with that name, but Paul is not so keen, but he may concede it as a second name!! Lily is the one name I adore - but have never been allowed so far :( Aaron is a possibility for a boy. Hannah has always been a name we like, but doesn't fit with 'Hampton' too well (h,h,h...) Rachel is an option now we no longer live in the south (Essex) and stand the risk of it being shortened to "Raaaaych" - but we've a while to underline just yet!! But I live in fear she might marry a Kevin. A crowd of friends and I (in my teen years) once named some worms "RachKev" "ShazDaz" & "DebsDave" for a giggle!!Carolinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12545739830180375779noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6813696.post-1098787032769264182004-10-26T11:37:00.000+01:002004-10-26T11:37:00.000+01:00hmm, that's exactly how we ended up with two 'A' n...hmm, that's exactly how we ended up with two 'A' names as well. Having chosen 'Anna' over 'Hannah' only because my french relations could say it better we then ummed and aahed for ages over Abigail, but it had to be that way - she's Abigail Ruth and it just didn't work the other way round!<br /><br />We would have ended up with countless 'J' names for boys if we hadn't decided to stop at 3, too - we had a baby that we lost called Joel, now we have Josiah, and the only other name ever in the offing was Jonathan! <br /><br />So anyway, I'm not really one to point the finger ;) Don't suppose you've got names sorted out yet in any case - or have you?!?!Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17414090970261215657noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6813696.post-1098780337183176552004-10-26T09:45:00.000+01:002004-10-26T09:45:00.000+01:00I wasn't planning to...it gets confusing around he...I wasn't planning to...it gets confusing around here at times too! We did think at the time we named him that it might, but decided we like 'Joel Isaac' too much to let it pass for that reason. :)<br /><br />I may have been busy, but not really done much with the kids I feel - but I don't think it hurts them once in a while to have to amuse each other - after all - there are plenty of them!! They can pick & choose who they play with even at home ;)Carolinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12545739830180375779noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6813696.post-1098745369533575622004-10-26T00:02:00.000+01:002004-10-26T00:02:00.000+01:00aargh!
