Name Change

For a girl we are still settled on Lucy (of Syracuse) Ignatius (of Antioch). But if a boy it looks like Basil (of Moscow) Wenceslas (of the Christmas Carol). But, of course, we do in reality have 8 days from the birth of the child to decide. So, all of this could change again.

    Thanks! We like them, too. My mom though... Well, I think they are too Orthodox for her.

    Good choices !
    Our youngest is "Abigail Lucy Faye" - Abigail because of it`s meaning in hebrew of "Father rejoiced at the birth", Lucy after the Saint, and Faye after my mother-in-law, and also as an anglicised version of St Fotini. She approaches the chalice as Abigail , though.
    How much longer before the baby is due ?

    Aren't Lucy and Fotini the Latin and Greek names of the same Saint?

    I don`t think they are.
    Lucy of Syracuse was a martyr,died 13 Dec 304 AD
    St Fotini the Samaritan woman at the well who met with our Lord.
