Help[Opinions] Re: Octuplets Names!!
in reply to a message by Llewella
If I may: I didn't see any written article on MSN but in the video it did sound like the boy's name was Michaiah, as opposed to McCai. I could be wrong though.
Also in her defense, the statement she made about not wanting to have too many more was said BEFORE the octuplets, as in when she only had six. She may want a large family and she might not have the best judgment, but she doesn't appear to be insane by wanting more than her already giant family.
That being said, I wouldn't use most of these names myself but it appeared to be important to her to have faith-based names:
Malia - derived from Mary, possibly meaning "wished for child" or "beloved"; also prominent name in the Bible
Noah - Biblical figure; means "rest, comfort"
Neriah - Biblical figure; means "lamp of Yahweh"
Jonah - Biblical figure; means "dove"
Isaiah - Biblical figure; means "Yahweh is salvation"
Jeremiah - Biblical figure; means "Yahweh has uplifted"
Micaiah - Biblical figures; means "who is like Yahweh?"
Josiah - Biblical figure; means "Yahweh supports"
I'd be interested to see what their middle names are, to see if she "punched them up" a bit. While I'm not a huge fan of her choices, I think she chose much better names for her multiples than others. And every name she chose has a very strong meaning that will remind her of her faith every day. It's actually quite beautiful, I think.
