MissScripture Posted March 5, 2011 Posted March 5, 2011 [quote name='franciscanheart' timestamp='1299284075' post='2218038'] Mine would all be named after saints too: Polycarp, Cosmos, Chrysogonus, Cyprian, Clement, Cletus and Sixtus [/quote] You sound like my sister! She wants me to name a future child "Athanasius." I named a fish that, instead.

They named him Bonaventure and said I couldn't name my kid after a fish.
SoonerCatholic Posted March 5, 2011 Posted March 5, 2011 [quote name='MaterMisericordiae' timestamp='1299263826' post='2217909'] How about: Sr. Claire Annette (clarinet) Father A. Long Sr. Mary Christmas Cardinal Sin (a real Roman Catholic priest!) [/quote] I know a Vietnamese priest who's called Fr. Long. He's Vietnamese and it's his first name. Very reverent and devout priest at my home parish. Unfortunately, his name rather lends itself to bad puns....

MargaretTeresa Posted March 5, 2011 Posted March 5, 2011 Haha! Oh goodness! While I am seriously discerning, if something were to change and I end up getting married one day (and had two little girls), I'd name them Ella Clare and Margaret Genevieve. Both good saint names. Not sure what I'd name little boys...I grew up in a household of girls lol... Although I do like Andrew Henry.

Chiquitunga Posted March 5, 2011 Posted March 5, 2011 [quote name='Margaret Mary' timestamp='1299264903' post='2217917'] How about Sister More Carmel (after Saint Thomas More and Our Lady of Mount Carmel)? [/quote]

[/quote] I was just trying to shush Vee. I won't be able to get a bigger aquarium until after we move to a house, and we won't be doing that until after we have kids, at which point we won't have money to buy a bigger aquarium. So, don't worry about it.

LaPetiteSoeur Posted March 6, 2011 Posted March 6, 2011 [quote name='emilier98' timestamp='1299281586' post='2218030'] I too like Polycarp. Before I was called to religious life I used to joke that I was going to name one of my children Polycarp. Good thing I'm going to be a sister otherwise my children would have had some odd names. lol [/quote] Same here as well! I even had a list of names. And all of them were truely odd. But very holy!
