If You Could Pick Your New Religious Name, What Would It Be?

[Antigonos]

"Sr. Talithacum, In the bible it means "little girl get up!"

 

Actually, the Hebrew is "you will ascend, rise".

[Mary+Immaculate<3]

I would not pick this for me, but I think it's pretty:
Sr. Lucia Caterina or
Sr. Francesca Teresa

[young_and_faithful_]

Sister Maria de la Encarnacion S.S.V.M

Sister Maria Teresa de la Cruz

Sister Maria Purisima

Sr. Teresa Evangelina of Divine Mercy
Sr. Felicity Rose of Divine Mercy

[Ancilla Domini]

Sister Mary Colette of Our Lady of Sorrows. :nun2:

[SilentJoy]

Sr. John of the Sacred Heart (or Altar)

[HolinessIsfaithfulness]

I am only submitting two names, both of which I would be incredibly happy with as a DSMME:
Sr. Catherine Rose
Sr. Monica Jude
As for my third option, I want Mother to know I am open to her choosing something else. I don't know necessarily know if she'll think either one of those fit me.

[RoseOfGuadalupe]

Sr. Maria Seraphina of the Cross

[Mary's Child]

I would like either

Sr Annmarie Goretti of Our Lady of Guadalupe or

Sr Ann Marie of Our Lady of Guadalupe.

And no this is not just because today is the Feast of Our Lady of Guadalupe :p.

I also thought of Juan Chiara.

Sister Mary Athaliah

I may have said this elsewhere, but for ages I kept telling my NM and the community that I wished to receive the name Sr Gervaise Maria.

 

It was only about a week before my Clothing and in an interview with Mother General that I let on that this was a joke. She was less than impressed.  

[KnightofChrist]

Fr. Gregory Michael

[Ancilla Domini]

Sister Mary Colette of Our Lady of Sorrows. :nun2:

 

Another possibility is Sister Maria Josefa, after Jose Sanchez del Rio.

[OnlySunshine]

Still the same for me:

 

Sr. Mary Elizabeth

 

though I don't see that happening unless I join a 3rd order that takes religious names (like some OCDS do).  ;)

[AveMariaPurissima]

Another possibility is Sister Maria Josefa, after Jose Sanchez del Rio.

Ooooh, I like it!!  And I love Bld. José!

[cartermia]

Sr. John Paul

Sr. Marie Bernadette

Sr. Maria Therese

Sr. Maria John

 

I really like Marie(a) for a religious name.
