Jewish sibset from Starbucks today
Was sitting with Sophia avoiding the rain in Starbucks waiting until it was time to go pick up Nicholas from summer camp when the cutest little girl with big brown eyes and curly brown hair came up to us and wanted to sit at our table. Her mum and baby sister came along to, and we got to talking about names over hot chocolate ;)Lior (7 months)
Shola ? (3 yrs, no idea of the spelling. Mum said it was short for a hebrew term that basically means Shalom, or peace. This is what it sounded like- Shoh-la)Anyway, Shola was really sweet and polite, and I thought it was a great set, very spunky. WDYT? *Edited because I can't spell brown

Love Lior!and I'm really curious about "Shola" now because I like the sound. I agree, it's a fun sibset.ETA: Was Lior a boy or girl?

I love, love, love Lior / Elior / Eliora / Liora but I prefer Liora or Eliora for a girl. Lior and Elior sound more boyish. Shola is pretty and has a nice meaning.

Aw. =) I love Lior, but more for a boy than a girl.

I like Lior & I prefer Shalom itself.

Interesting to see Lior on a girl...Liora is much more common. I really like Liora (g) and Lior (boy).I'll bet that Shola comes from "sholom/sholem", the Yiddish version of shalom. There's a famous Yiddish writer named Sholem Aleichem, who wrote the book on which Fiddler on the Roof was based. I haven't heard of Shola being used as a name before, but I like it.

I really like those. I know a Liora, so that seems more natural for a girl, but Lior is actually quite appealing. Reminds me of Leonor, which I love. Shola is really growing on me. Wow, I'm about to add that to my long list (I LOVE Selah, but this may be even better).
