Help[Opinions] Re: Conrad and Joseph.
in reply to a message by vigdis
My favorite J names are Jorah (a name from a book) and Jericho (which is technically biblical, but not a person...) Some others could be Ezra, Nathan, Luke, Francis, Adam, or Luther? Well, maybe not Luther if you're shooting for Catholic.
I love Conrad Arthur. I think Conrad is way more approachable/familiar than Magda, and just as approachable/familiar as Miriam. An alternative is Conri, which I think sounds a little more friendly. Conri could also be a nn.

LOL on Luther..
My dad is actually a big fan of Luther. I'm iffy on the name and person.
It's interesting that Conrad is more familiar to you - where are you from? I went to school with a LOT of people from Eastern Europe (mostly Bulgaria) and so I'm familiar with Magda and names like it. Not so much with Conrad, go figure.
As for the names you suggested:
Ezra: On my list but he doesn't like.
Nathan: Prefer Nathaniel.
Luke: I tried for this but my husband is too big of a fan of Star Wars for people to not mock him.
Francis: On the list.
Adam: I like it, he doesn't.
Thanks. Honestly, none of the names really do much for me. There is a vibe that I want, these names don't give it. I'm not even sure what that vibe is or how to describe it - I just know when I find it. And actually...Ezra gives off the vibe of all the names. It's an old-testament, salt-of-the-earth, good name. I'm not sure why many non-Old testament or non-Jewish names don't give me that vibe.
