Re: What do honoring names mean to you? :)
in reply to a message by Xena
Both of my kids have both first and middle name honoring names. We didn't really plan it that way. We knew we wanted middle names as honoring names. But then, I absolutely fell in love with giving my daughter the name Amalia which is after my great grandma. There was nothing else I liked more, so she got first and middle honoring names. Then I had my son, who is the only boy on either side of the family. So, it was really important to us to name him after his grandpas. If we were to have a third, we'd definitely still have an honoring middle name, but not necessarily an honoring first name, even though my other two have it.Check out my ever changing name list! http://www.behindthename.com/pnl/137889Mom to Amalia and Jon

It's so great that you found names that you loved and that ended up being honoring as well :) Amalia is a gorgeous name and it reminds me of the children's show I used to watch when I was little: "Víla Amálka" which is really cute
