RainMy aunt's name is Rachel. I was trying to find "Ray" names, and ended up on Rain. David loves it. Anyways, I texted my cousin to ask her what she thought of Rachel->ray->Rain. She thought it worked and that her mom would like the idea, too. I mentioned that for the "Bible name" (both of my kids have a Bible passage chosen for them that has one of their names in it...Matthew 10:31 for Caemlyn Sparrow; Revelation 22:16 for David Royce), in leaning toward Noah and the rainbow for Rain. As it turns out, Noah is Rachel's favorite story. It just feels too perfect now not to use Rain, whether I have a boy or girl.

So you'd use Rain for either sex or Rain for a girl and Noah for a boy? I actually like Rain (for either sex) and I like how it also has a biblical yet nature aspect to it (like Sparrow).
