LOL on Luther..
My dad is actually a big fan of Luther. I'm iffy on the name and person. It's interesting that Conrad is more familiar to you - where are you from? I went to school with a LOT of people from Eastern Europe (mostly Bulgaria) and so I'm familiar with Magda and names like it. Not so much with Conrad, go figure.

As for the names you suggested:
Ezra: On my list but he doesn't like.
Nathan: Prefer Nathaniel.
Luke: I tried for this but my husband is too big of a fan of Star Wars for people to not mock him.
Francis: On the list.
Adam: I like it, he doesn't. Thanks. Honestly, none of the names really do much for me. There is a vibe that I want, these names don't give it. I'm not even sure what that vibe is or how to describe it - I just know when I find it. And actually...Ezra gives off the vibe of all the names. It's an old-testament, salt-of-the-earth, good name. I'm not sure why many non-Old testament or non-Jewish names don't give me that vibe.

Well, I don't actually know any Conrad's or Magda's. I guess I'd heard of Conrad before I ever heard of Magda. I live in the US, in Wyoming.

Got it.So you live in a similar area - I am now in North Dakota. Before I lived in DC and went to a school with a lot of embassy kids. That said I'm surprised I haven't come across any Conrads - it's such a German name and this is an incredibly German area.
