Lately Laurel has been appealing to me, as it seems to really match my style. I've been thinking of Laurel Kathleen, Kathleen would be her grandmother. WDYT?

---

Also, WDYT of Judith Veronica? I love Veronica, but I think it's just too heavy as a first name. The only combo I seem to really like is this one. That said, which is better: Miriam Helen or Liora Helen? Why?

---

Finally, I have always loved Sojourner Truth, and wanted to honor her. Using her real name is not an option - she chose a new name to represent herself and using her original name would be - to me - disrespectful. WDYT of Liora Truth?

---

So, the sib set would be Laurel Kathleen, Miriam Helen, and Liora Truth. Boys' names would probably be the same - Nathaniel Schaan, Simon Raphael, and Lev / Laurence / Lir Allan. (My choice would be Lir.)

I do know that there are an awful lot of Ls, but I don't plan on having more than two or three kids. The actual sibling set I would probably use would be a mixture of Lir Allan, Nathaniel Schaan, Liora Helen, and Miriam Judith. That way I would honor those I wanted to ( My father, grand-father, aunts, and husband's mother.) Leaves out a lot of people, though. :-(
