HelpRe: Baruch and Shiphrah?
in reply to a message by Tippins
I've loved Baruch for years. Even though it reminds me of a dog barking, I still think it's handsome and rugged. That surprises me, but I guess that's the measure of a name you really love; if you love it in spite of a bad association.
B boy names are a particular favorite of mine. I hadn't thought about Bonaventure / Bonaventura before, but you're right. It is really neat. Baldassare is to die for. My gawd, is that handsome. Barakat reminds me of Barak (as in Mr. O). Is it related?
Bonaventure reminds me of a female name you might like: Benvenida. It means welcome in Spanish. I came across it in a book about medieval women.
Boniface is a guilty pleasure for me. I say guilty because it seems too feminine to actually give to a real boy / man. Perhaps as a mn? Medieval names of popes / saints are so much fun and Boniface fits right into that mold.
Shiphrah sounds lovely. But looking at it I can't stop thinking, "ship wreck." Is Shifrah a legitimate spelling?
