Right. But I still really like it. I might use it as a middle name, though. I don't know yet. The reason is because I like
Gianna just as much as Pessy and
Lillian. I just have to pray about it. lol
I don't know why, but this name is so cutesy for my taste. I like cute names, I think that's my style. I know what it means, Daughter of God. I am well aware.
By the way, if I'd have a Pessy
Lillian, that would connect to my son's name. I am well aware of that as well. As the Pharaoh's daughter took baby
Moses out of the water. By the way, as I was reading the daily reading for class in the OT, I came to a realization that
Moses was someone great. It just hit me. And then, because I
LOVE baby names, I decided that my first son's name will be
Moses. I even told God that! I really did and ask Him please let me have the chance to name my son after
Moses. And then, in my spare time late at night I did research on the name
Moses on this website and then I found
Moshe, which I started loving as the days went by even better than
Moses, which sounds a bit harsher if you know what I mean for my own personal taste. At that time, instantly I pronounced it as the correct pronounciation but then Moshie always slipped out as if I would call my son. I did more research and came to the realiztion that it is pronounced as I first thought it would be, really, really sweetly, as
Moshe. And I have come across this name during high school but took little notice of it and then it escaped from my short term memory. I took an Old Testament class at my university which was VERY, VERY detailed...we only got through the first hald of the OT, and I will take another OT class, the other half of it which too, is going to be very detailed. I love to read and learn so I do research on the names I love as well believe it or not. The Pharaoh's name as my Professor told us in class was never really mentioned at least in the KJV, correct me if I'm wrong, but by then I knew it was
Batya. And actually, I have a friend who was in love, really he still calls me to this day (but I never pick up) and he really used to like a girl named
Batya so I'm familiar with the name. So yes, and as I thought it over, would we have the Ten Commandments that I, even myself sometimes struggle to keep? Like honoring my parent as sometimes I throw tantrums, honesty--like not picking up my friend's phone calls, dang it I should write him an e-mail now...I feel bad now...I will...anyways this all would not have been given if
MOSHE would not have received the plates from God. Oh yes and little
Moshe would nothave been rescued from the water but would have been killed or drowned if not for Batya--I don;t know the ancient, original Hebraic form--maybe this is it but I know the history. Maybe I cannot fully understand it and I totaally understand your argument here but I do understand part of it and I have been thinking even yesterday night
Moshe's middle name will be that of my great uncle who perished in the Holocaust, he was my grnadpa's sister's husband. Our family LOVED that man who took my own grandpa to one of the best hospitals in Hungary when my grandpa became very ill. Yes, I do understand your point and I could elaborate more on it but then I again how COULD I understand it? Maybe I can't but just for the sake of honoring and then again, I really like the names, they're cute! Pessy
Lillian is growing on me.
Thank goodness for that baby name site that I can come across really nice names from diverse backgrounds and some of them are really a treat. :) I am bored of Isabellas, Sophias, Avas, Daniels,
James's, Dylans,
Michael's, Tylers...none of those names ar emy taste.
So yes, in conclusion I do understand the meaning and history behind those names--hey that's the name of this site! :) And I will go a bit smoother on my third child also my last one most likely with a
Sophie possibly. Pessy and
Sophie.
Can sound cute together. Too cutesy but oh well. It's ok I don't really care once my children are born what people think of their names--I mean if they think negatively about them. Let them do so. They can make genraliztions about me and possibly my future beloved husband--but mostly it always falls on the women/wives, but I'm just going to show love and concern back despite all negative comments, looks I think that is the best thing to do.
I love those names! Pessy,
Lillian,
Gianna are ties for me.
