Re: Nathanael
in reply to a message by Moony2
If I'd had a son his name would have been Nathanael Robert. I love the name! I love that you could call him Nathan or Nate if you wanted to (but only sometimes, because the full name is amazing). The length and flow work with my daughter's 3-syllable 9-letter name. It's magnificent! And why I do understand why people prefer the other spelling, I like Nathanael, because many versions of the Bible (including the three I use the most often) use this spelling. So I'm used to it. I love the meaning, and I love the story in the book of John about this calling (the back and forth between Jesus and Nathanael is rather amusing).
