ArchivesNevaeh in other languages.
in reply to a message by Ylva
Wouldn't the Swedish version of Nevaeh be "Lemmih"? :)
Lemmih would also be the German version. It would be Oleic in Spanish; and Leic in French.

Sounds like "lemming" :)
Lemmih would perhaps be a good name for a hamster or a guinea pig.

in Dutch it'd be Lemeh, doesn't look like a girl's name, could be a male in the bible ;)

Gendering = bad.
I assume that you're looking for fluffy and weak for it to be suitable for a girl.

Who says? You? So what? Bold assumption you made about Mar. Who's stereotyping now?

WTF?
ADT, Mar was referring to the fact that Hebrew names ending in 'ah' or 'eh' are more often male than female. The name *does* look similar to many male Hebrew names and there's nothing at all weird about saying so.
It has *nothing* to do with gender, stereotyping or any of your usual soapbox subjects. If you insist on subjecting us to your rants, at least do it legitimately instead of pouncing on anyone who dares say that fobidden word, "male".

1. I never heard a fluffy names, because fluffy refers to hair or fur and name is not equipped with that :P
2. If you click my profile and see my fav names, you'll see I like loads of non-(what I think you might mean with)"Fluffy and weak" names.
3. Please go ahead and cheer when parents go and name their daugther Rocky if you like, but don't bother me again with your overly-feministic preaching.
Thank you for reading.

Again, I'm very much against gender stereotypes. Because what exactly is that what makes a name "masculine" or "feminine" sounding if it's not stereotypes.

What about history and origin?
What makes a name male or female is it is male/female historically imo.
I guess Lemmih would be unisex, since it has no history/tradition.

Hey, be careful with those suggestions :)
Now it's only a matter of time before someone names their son Lemeh and claims they saw that in a Dutch translation of the bible (but they heard it's *actually* the Latvian word for "phoenix who rises from the ashes").

Yup. And it would be Leic in French...Oleic in Spanish and Italian, I think.
But Ayla, Na, Luemah and Inal are not that bad. :)

That would also be "Lemmih" in Danish. It sounds too much as the small creature Lemming to me. Ugh!
I don't care for that at all.

I think they look cute
A bit similar to hamsters and guinea pigs but of course wilder.
But maybe not a good name for a human being. But there is already Lemuel, not so far away.
