The Meaning of Her Name

August 20, 2010 by Aliesha

As we mentioned way back when we were starting to look at baby names, meaning has always been very important to us! We wanted to share with you why we chose Vera Evangeline for our baby girl.

Vera – Latin, “truth”

Evangeline – Greek, “bearer of the Good News”

It is our prayer that Vera Evangeline will be a woman of truth and character, and that God would use her to bear His Good News (the Gospel) to others.

    I love the meaning of her name. Makes me think of how God calls her. When She was born, God probably said ” My little angel of truth, go on into this world and bring my good news to the people you meet!”
