Baby Names

Much before Jeremy and I started trying to get pregnant we had our baby names picked out. There have been times when I have tried to deviate from our planned names and he insists that these are our kids names. :)

We wanted a letter theme...I liked alot of E names....so we intend to have all of our children's names start with E. I'm a matchy matchy kind of person.

Girl Names:

1. Eleanor Lorraine (Lorraine is my middle name and my mother's middle name...we thought it would be special to continue on the family tradition for our first daughter). Eleanor...because I love the name...it means Light...and Lorraine means battle....Light in Battle...I forsee my future daughter being a light in battle for the souls of men and women.

2. Eternity Faith- This isn't a family name...but our faith is very important to both of us and we thought it would be neat to have a daughter that exemplies this in her name...the middle name is not set in stone....we also like Grace.

3. Elenia Grace- We have a close family friend named Eleni. I just love her name and Jeremy likes the addition of the a sound.

BOY NAMES

1. Ezekiel Jeremy- Jeremy wants his first son to have his first name as his middle name since Jeremy's middle name is Kirk (his dad's first name). I love the name Ezekiel...a prophet in the old testemant. Not alot of boys have this name...We'd call him Zeek has a nickname.

2. Elijah Jesse- If we have more then one boy we would like this to be his name. Jesse was my grandpa's first name...He was a very special influence in my life and is now with the Lord. I would like to honor him in this small way.

3. Entrari - this is a name of one of Jeremy's everquest (online game) characters...we like the way it sounds.

Now we just need the babies to go with the names. My entire life I grew up praying that I'd have ALL girls. After we started trying I had a dream that we were going to have two boys and one girl. God has given me a strong desire to have a boy first...which is totally wierd considering that I grew up not wanting any boys... (had a crazy brother).

I'll be happy with healthy babies :)
