In the course of my daily reading, I came across some gems for girls. Wouldn't every adoring parent want to name their baby girl after the most beautiful women of the land?
The LORD blessed the latter part of Job's life more than the first. He had fourteen thousand sheep, six thousand camels, a thousand yoke of oxen and a thousand donkeys. And he also had seven sons and three daughters. The first daughter he named Jemimah, the second Keziah and the third Keren-Happuch. Nowhere in all the land were there found women as beautiful as Job's daughters, and their father granted them an inheritance along with their brothers. [Job 42:12-15]What are you waiting for? Name your daughters Keren-Happuch today!
So were you expecting beautiful girls' names or beautiful girls' names?

Good one :)
But I know I won't be going for "Jemimah", not after having read Beatrix Potter's The Tale of Jemima Puddleduck...
Wow that brings back memories ... well not really ... I used to have all the books but I don't remember a thing now :( I guess you must be re-reading all of them ...
Now you're back, wonder if you'd be interested to meet up? I'd love to meet the person behind the writing.
I was just thinking of naming my daughter Keren. heh. Not cos of the bible character, but cos Keren means 'cool' or 'funky' in Indon. *grin*
