I like biblical names too.My oldest son is Matthew (means Gift of God in Hebrew).My daughter is Michaela (female version of Michael).And if I was going to have another boy I would name him Josiah. I really like the name Faith.It is strong and has great meaning to it.

I love the names Brie and Bailey. I have 2 girls their names are Katie Marie and Sara Nicole. I love their names also but I really wanted the name Brie for one of them but my husband never liked the name. Maybe I can try next time to get that name for my little one lol. We are going to try for a boy but it will probably be another girl lol.

How about Michaela
Cheyenne
Gabrielle
Ava

It's great that people adopt, there are thousands of children that need a family and a home. My daughter's name is Audrey Willow. I believe she is the only Audrey Willow in the world, it's a unique name. Other names i thought of when i was pregnant were; Star, Cleo, Jordan and Lilly. My name is Nicole but every body calls me Nikki. My sister is Natalie. I like the names Gwenyth and Winnie. By the way, the meaning of AUDREY is "Noble Strength" Good luck with it all.
