Hello!
I already have two kids, two girls. Their names are Taylor Aliza and Sydney Jael. We are expecting twins soon. We don't want to know weather they're two girl, two boys or a girl and a boy. Their second name should be hebrew like Aliza and Jael. We already have three hebrew names that we like: boys: Raphael and Jonah, girl: Noa. We still need one hebrew name for a girl and four other names. Do you have any idea?
Thanks!

I would suggest that if you have boys you give them the most masculine names you can think of to help balance out the cross-gender names on your girls.

Hullo, it's me! lol
In fact, the Hebrew for Elizabeth is Elisheva, and the Hebrew for Judith is Yehudit. :)
You can go here to find others: http://www.behindthename.com/nmc/jew.html and http://www.behindthename.com/nmc/bibl.html (if you’re Jewish, be careful not to chose a name with Christian or pagan connotations: Shimon is good, Simeon isn’t, and isn’t Hebrew anyway)
Here, you'll find original Hebrew names: http://www.hebrewletters.com/results.cfm?catid=198
About the pronounciation:
“i” = y, not “eye” or a long “ee”
“Ch“ = “kh“ (like hiJo, aCHtung…)
“E” = like in „stEAk“, never „fAde“ or „dAY“ (no „ee“ sound after it), and „e“ is never „uh”, “ee”…
“eth”, “ith” are always prononced "et", "it", not like in "the" or "thin".
A few of my favs:
Yocheved (God’s glory) wrongly listed as male (!!) under Jochebed
Lilia (what is mine is also God's)
Nevia (prophetess)
Miriam
Esther
Rahel (ra-khel)
Tova
Symelia (form of Syma, the Aramaic for "treasure" and also feminine form of Shimmel and pet form of Simcha)
Malka
Eden
Doda (Aramaic feminine form of David, also used as feminine form of David in Europe during the Middle Ages)
Zahava (golden)
Hannah
Batyah
Michal
Nachala (estate, inheritance)
Nechama (consolation)
Necha / Nacha (rest)
Shelomith (original Hebrew form of Salome)
I hope you find a name you love!
