We have a new boy, to be born in early March. When discussing names, my wife and I went through baby names books and websites, just like many people. It was neat to learn what different names mean, but I couldn't find any information resource which would give you possible names based on meanings. In other words, I could find out that Sarah means "princess", but if I knew I wanted to name my kid a name which means "princess", how would I go about finding a list of possible names for that meaning? For the record, I am looking for a boy name which is biblical or derived from a bible name, and which means something along the lines of "abundant", "fulfilled", or "overflowing". There is a book by Kolatch called The Name Dictionary, which is a hebrew dictionary of names. YOu can read each entry for meanings and it also has the relationship of male/female names, plus related sounding names. So, if you look up Rose, you'll find an entry for Shoshana (hebrew for Rose), the male equivalent if there is one, and related names. It also has a very in depth explanation of the meaning and etymology of the name. Marjorie |

If you ever meet the kid's parents, ask them if they are big fans of the Red Hot Chili Peppers.

Ok, names, names, names, my grandfather's name was Moses (of course he would
be 115 now so I guess that wasn't so unusual back then, and also my DH's grandmother's middle name was Dorcus (from the Bible), again, we thought it odd but she too would be about 109 now so the end of the century turned out some interesting names. I do know a Cletus though, he's 70 something and from the south. Shirley "Rhiann1048" wrote in message ...
