Hubby and I have been TTC for just over 3 years and we start seeing a new RE tomorrow ....in this long journey we always discuss names. We like bible names without being common like noah or mary. For a boy we like
Gideon Walter (walter my late grandpa)
Abrahm or Abraham Walter (same as above)
for a girl we like
Delilah Nicole (nicole is my middle name)
Delilah Ann (grandma and mom middle name)
any other suggestions are welcome, thinking of names has really helped the last few years go by!!
Re: WDYT
Oh I love Abram Walter (Abram spelled like this). And I love seeing Walter being used.
For a girl, I'd go with Delilah Ann. Nicole is very '80s and I love seeing namesakes for relatives... such as your grandma and grandpa.
Good luck TTC! Hopefully you'll get your BFP soon. Three years is a long time to wait for a little one.

I think it is kind of odd to be into Bible names and use Delilah as an example...she was such a vile biblical character. Choosing her as a namesake seems weird to me.
I also tend to love some of the more obscure biblical names (and Gideon is one of my favorites). Heres some others that I like:
Ezra
Malachai
Silas
Dinah
Gloria (despite that not being a person)
Zipporah
I like Abraham Walter (nn Bram?)
and love Delilah Ann!
My only thing with Bible names (which I love) is who they were in the Bible. I simply don't like Delilah b/c of who she was.
Gideon and Abraham are good.
More suggestions:
Boy: Abel, Aaron, Adam, Andrew, Alexander, Caleb, Isaac, Isaiah, John, Paul, Jonah, Micah, Matthew, Luke, Daniel, David, Jacob, Jonathon, Jason, Joel, etc....
Girl: Abigail, Alexandria, Anna, Bethany, Cherith, Eden, Esther, Eve, Deborah/Debra, Hannah, Lydia, Moriah, Naomi, Sarah, etc
Hope some help!

Personally, I do like Abraham and I think Delilah is really pretty (although the namesake does have some questionable qualities which is the reason why it's not on our list).
I'm also a big fan of Ethan for a boy and Esther for a girl (both Biblical names).
