Sibset
WDYTO the sibset:
Ephraim Malachi (Fruitful messenger)
Asher Michael (blessed/happy is he who is like the Lord)
Mara ??
Ada ??
Eve Zoe (not Biblical but Biblical Greek; pron. zo-AY)(to live life)
Ironically my husband and I both like all of these names... amazing!
The E's and A's are a coincidence, the Bible theme isn't. Any good Bible suggestions for MNs?

I love Ephraim, it's reallly *really* pretty in Hebrew but I like it in plain old boring American English too.
love Malachi!
Asher I'm not fond of because whenever I hear someone say it at first I always think they are saying Ass, only for a split second, but it ruins it for me.
I loathe the name Michael,sorry. It's soooooo common that to me it's like the child might as well have been named boy or baby.
Love Mara! It was on my list during this last pregnancy but the meaning 'bitter' turns me off. Although if my husband really liked it I would still use it.
i like it wih:
Mara Faith
Mara Zion...maybe
Mara Hadassah
Mara Bethany
Mara Grace
Mara Patience
Ada I'm not fond of but it goes with Ruby, Naomi, Ruth
Eve I love and is very near the top of my new list so far. I like:
Eve Hadassah
Eve Benjamina
Eve Eliora
Zoe is cute, it was on my list until a close friend of mine named her dog this :O(
Zoe Annalise
Zoe Elisha
Zoe-Faith (meaning a life of faith, i love that)

About Michael...
it's my husband's name and it the only reason I would use it is because, well, I have to. Their family tradition is to make the first son's middle name the same as the father's first name. It's been carried down for so long I'd feel awful if we were to break it! Plus, it could be a lot worse than Michael :)
Also, I really love Anneliese... is it a Bible name??

I ADORE both Eve and Zoe (specially with the pronunciation you're using, though I'd spell it with an accent: Zoé, as in French, or Zoè, as in Catalan), but not together. They'd make a wonderful sib/twin set, though!
I love Ada, too, and it's my 2nd/3rd favourite name right now with the Catalan pronunciation, AH-duh.
I also like Asher -Asher Michael is a nice combo-, but the others are nms. Mara does sound and look good, imo, but the meaning is too much for me.
