    Congratulations! What a beautiful baby girl, and what a beautiful name. I’m very interested in naming, and I think you’ve made a lovely choice – a classic, refined name, which is unusual and feminine but not fussy. And both names have such nice meanings, too.

    Awwww, what sweet pics! Congratulations. Nice name, ‘proclaiming the gospel of truth!’ – or at least it seems that’s what it would mean. πŸ™‚

    Praise God for the joy He brings through this new little life.
