Using a Jewish/Hebrew name - care to share? nft

Girl:  I've always loved the name Sari (meaning princess), but am afraid people will make fun of it because it sounds like sorry.

Boy:  Ethan (meaning strong), but I can't get over how popular it has become lately.

    My friend who is due in Jan. is naming her son Ethan. I love it too, just wish it wasn't so popular!

    Sari - cute but would remind me of Suri (And I can't stand Tom and Katie)

     

    Ethan - LOVE.  It's one of the names we are considering.

    I'm with you on the Sari.  I couldn't get there.  Have you thought about Sarai (Isn't this how Sarah was spelled when Abraham was Abram?)

    LOVE Ethan.  It's not on our list though.

    We're considering Jesse for a girl.  We really want to keep with traditional biblical names.

    We were going with Ethan for a boy, I love that name. I totally agree that is has become super popular, but if you like it... go for it.

    About Sari - to me it sounds too much like Suri. Not a big fan.

    But I like the idea of Hebrew names, the meanings are so powerful.

    LOVIN' the name Sarai!  Not sure how it would work with our last name.  Hmmmmm, I'm adding it to the list.

    I also love the name Jonah or Jonas for a boy.

    We would like to use a biblical name (we're Christian). 

    Here are some of our favorites and their meanings:

    Eve (life), Noah (comfort), Adah (witness), Joseph (God adds), Abram (father lifted), Daniel (God is my judge), Eli (ascension), Elizabeth (my God is an oath), Lydia

    Our little girl name is Simone. The Origin is Hebrew.

    I love the names Sari and Shana. DH won't use them b/c they're too unusual. So, we're going with Lillian, Layla, or Lilah (some of which have Hebrew origin). If its a boy it'll either be Jacob, Jaron, or Jared with a middle name of Simon -- all of which have Hebrew origin.?

    We really like Isaac, which I believe is Old Testament and thus Hebrew?
