My grandmother's name is Laverne and we are trying to honor her without using the name... She was always called LuLu and didn't really like it herself! So translations for Laverne are literally "alder", there is also a Roman Goddess Laverna, and Vernus means "spring". So when I was looking up names, those were three things that I searched meanings for. Here is what we've come up with, pick your favorite or suggestions please!
Which girls name? Poll 127 votes
Delaney - "from the alder grove"

Aurora - also a Roman Goddess (a bit of a stretch)
No matter how hard I force myself, I can't get onboard with Aurora. I live in Aurora, CO and not too far from the Theater where the shooting took place that killed 12 people and injured 70.
Re: Which girls name? Poll
Maia-- I love the connection to your Gma's name.
I actually like Aurora the best of the name choices, but I think it's a bit of a stretch if you want to honor your gma.

So with that said, I picked Delaney.
