Could you ask your friend about
Aviva,
Noa,
Michal,
Chaya,
Miriam,
Eden, Kineret (Kinneret) and
Keturah? that would be awesome. Such a surprise to hear the
Zipporah is seen as dated, it is among my favorites.
Aviva is one of my favorites. It's so beautiful and I love its meaning. A wonderful name.
I love
Maya, too.
Maia used to be my favorite spelling but since I know about
Maya's Hebrew meaning, I prefer
Maya.
Oh I love
Avia. I thought about spelling it
Aviya but I guess it could be perceived as trendy by many or as just another
Ava variant.
ahhhhh Kinneret. I love it! I also like
Rona, but I prefer
Roni and Ronia nn
Roni.
Chaya and
Hadar are lovely.
I like Miri (prefer
Miriam nn Miri),
Naomi,
Dana,
Michal,
Nahal,
Sarai and
Talia.
I really dislike
Rotem. It reminds me of "rotten".
Nitza reminds me of Nizza (the party island) so I'm not a fan.
Zev is cool and I like
Noah, though I prefer it on a girl. I also love
Noa for a girl.
