I really like the name books by Linda Rosenkrantz and Pamela Redmond Satran (The Beyond Jennifer and Jason series). They are fun and funny and much better than the typical "dictonary" of names. My suggestion: head for one of the big bookstores with the comfy chairs and check out some of the books.

Hi,

I really want to thank you for your suggestions. My sons name is Nathaniel Anthony Castro. I will be having a ultra sound pretty soon so hopefully I could find out the sex of this baby. What do think about Sara Lee. I really trying to stick with picking out a name that is biblical. My sons name means gods gift, and Sara means princess.

Hope to hear from you soon.

I think Sara Lee Castro can work nicely for you.

Sara is a lovely name. Although Sara Lee sounds nice together, I would avoid it because of the "Cupcake" teasing (Sara Lee pastries, cakes, etc.)

Other mn ideas for Sara:

Sara Elizabeth
Sara Ellen
Sara Christine
Sara Faith
Sara Grace
Sara Leanne (this gets your "Lee" in there, but not so obvious for the "cupcake")
Sara Louise
Sara Nicole

Good Luck!

Unless you want to hear a lot of "no body doesn't like..." jokes, I'd stay away from Sara Lee. Here's a list of biblical names to get you started:

Boy:
Abraham-father of a multitude
Asher-fortunate, lucky, blessed, happy
Benjamin-son of my right hand
Brighton-the one who is loved
Cain-craftsman
Caleb-bold
Elijah-Jehovah is god
Emmanuel-God is With Us
Gideon-mighty warrior
Isaac-laughing one
Jeremiah-exalted of the Lord
Jonas-Dove
Josiah-fire of the Lord
Malachi-messenger of God
Tobias-God is good

Girl:
Adalia-refuge of God, just, noble one
Adelaide-noble kind, adorned
Beth, Bethany-Worshiper of God
Daniela-my judge is the Lord
Eden-delightful, adornment, paradise
Evelyn, Eve-Life Giving
Jada-wise
Naomi-pleasent one; above all, beauty
Rebecca, Reba-Faithful One
Justine-just, true
