My husband and I were flipping through the Encyclopedia of Saints' Names last night. We got a little silly and decided to open the book to see what we should name our child.
Peter came up
every single time - except once when it was Pope
Innocent. His original name?
Peter. :-D
Madeline was no different.
So, wdyt? I like
Peter quite a lot, though we couldn't use it as a first name.
Madeline I'm iffy on, as I have two cousins who have already used it. Plus it's just...not really my style. I prefer
Margaret or
Magdalene.
Also:
Jacob Leonard or
Jacob Cosmas?
Leonard won't be used as a first name. I don't like using the full name and my husband hates the nn
Len. (And neither of us likes
Leo.)
