[Opinions] Interesting.

I'm more familiar with Magdala than I am with Magdalene. I think it's because I've come across it in literature a few times while I haven't come across Magdalene.I'm still not quite sure which name I would use, though. It's between Magdala, Magda, Magdalen, Miriam, and Margaret. Miriam would probably win. :-D

Agree on MiriamIt's a gorgeous name, and while I've got nothing against the Magdalene-derived names, I think it's much nicer. And I've always found Margaret boring and tired.

Off topic, but anyway-We have a friend, male, named Magdi-it's an Arabic name, he's Egyptian.

Really? The Bible isn't a prominent enough literary source to cement it in your mind? :)
