Re: Brier/Briar

Elizabeth seems like a more intuitive way to honour Bessie. However, not your question.
Briar Rose is one of my favourite GPs, because of the fairy tale, but yeah, no good for a real name. I don't like Briar that much for a real kid myself. Without the 'rose' it sounds rather masculine.

I have put a lot of thought into Elizabeth, but it's so Christian to me and doesn't seem to fit on a Jewish baby. I really love Elisheva, though, and would use it in a heartbeat. I agree with you, though, that that would be a more direct way to honor her.
