veritas99 Posted November 14, 2006 Posted November 14, 2006 Sr. Athanasius Marie or Sr. Mary Athanasius Also maybe Sr. Mary Thomas ( after St. Thomas the apostle)
shortnun Posted November 15, 2006 Posted November 15, 2006 [quote name='stlmom' post='1119725' date='Nov 14 2006, 11:35 AM'] Some of the other sisters from the order who taught us back then had unusual names, at least we thought so back then: Fridoline, Allowine, Ewaldine, Seraphine, Ladislaus, Hilaria, Doloretta, and Narcisia. [/quote] Were the sisters Welsh? Or did they spend a lot of time reading Arthurian legends?

Of course, they all are, that one just jumped out at me. Another name that seems very common amongst nuns is Annunciata, that name always seems to come up when I am talking to people about nuns, everyone seemed to know one! [/quote] That's funny, I know a Sr. Annunciata. Actually I'm not sure if I've actually met her, I prolly have. But my sister knows her. [quote name='hugheyforlife' post='1119437' date='Nov 13 2006, 11:12 PM'] Saint Thomas Aquinas. He's such a cool saint. [/quote] Oh! St. Thomas Aquinas is awesome. Edited November 15, 2006 by uruviel

franciscanheart Posted February 16, 2011 Posted February 16, 2011 It's funny to look back at what I thought I wanted my name to be. If I HAD to choose, I have an idea. But I don't think I'll choose.
Guest oby Posted February 25, 2011 Posted February 25, 2011 Am a Nigerian and new to this forum. I will be taking up the name Sr. Flora-Marie when I join a religious order in the next few months.
