ArchivesAnyone Want To Help Me Pick A Girl Name?
Hi,
I'm pregnant, due in April (around the 19th) and well... We're not finding out the gender so we're looking for both boy's and girl's names. For a boy, we've already picked - Corwyn Brandt Futrell. But for a girl???? The middle name will be Ann for sure (for my Mama) and my husband thinks that if it's a girl she needs a name that means "Destiny's Friend". I'm going to look in your database too, right after I post this, but we both agree that the meaning is less important than that we both like the sound.
Also, we're Pagan, and we're both on different paths but the one thing we have in common is a love for Chaos.
Thanks!

A suggestion (Mike C plz take a look)
One possibility is Moira. Besides the etymology suggested by Mike C in this site, Moira also means destiny and fate in Greek.
The goddesses of Fate (Moirai) of Greek mythology are:
Clotho ("to spin"): she was thespinner of the thread of destiny.
Lachesis ("to obtain by lot"): she measured the thread of destiny.
Atropos ("inexorable"): the most implacable of fates, she cut the thread of destiny with her scissors.

I think you dropped by here once before, as I seem to recall both Pavlos and I attempting to 'gram a name for you out of "Destiny's Friend".
I'm curious... When you say that you and your husband are Pagan and on "different paths", do you mean that you're both on a path different from mainstream society, or that your own Pagan path differs from that of your husband's Pagan path?

Sorry it took so long to reply. We are each on our own path, and both are less-than-mainstream. We're extremely ecclectic, to the point where we refuse to ascribe to anything, and our religion seems to be so freethinking it's offensive to some. For me, my deity is Nature, and my rituals consist mainly of experiencing life. Being pregnant (eighteen weeks and one day today) is fantastic in that light.
I have indeed been here before, but that time it turned out I wasn't pregnant - we struggled for nine months with the effects of the pill before I conceived.
