What is the best name for my new son?

I'm partial to Brian myself. But I also like Jared.

Out of these choices, I would have to go with Noah or possibly Sage. You have lots of time to get serious about names before July.

I kind of like "Orion". "Jethro" would be a lot better if it weren't for the "Beverly Hillbillies" association. "Jesus" is good if you have a Hispanic last name, and pronounce it "Hay-Soos".

Couldn't tell you. I don't know you.

Noah is my favorite from the list. But I kind of like Orion too.

Noah or Jeremiah

The name that's most meaningful to you is the best one.

If he is Jeremiah, his nickname could be Jerry. I like the name Jerry. It sounds so serene and mellow. My baby is due March 19. Any day now!! I'm naming him Brian, because it also sounds serene and mellow.

Hey! I didn't see you there when I posted that.

But I am serious!

Dominic
Victor

Victor Von Doom! heyzeus1 should name him Victor Von Doom!

Of the choices, I'd go with Orion. To me it implies sophistication. Next would be Noah, which implies kindness.
Just a little secret.....Micah is the best name in the world. Shhh...

Basil.

I've somtimes thought of naming my first born son Terry Gilliam Webber.

Sage and Orion are cool. You are, #2. I am a name not a number.
Ezekiel, Raduriel, Alistair, ... Who do you want to be bringing into this world?
Tsarhala, Goheemba, Valzindar, Ferhanduuz, Absinrujar, Quiiphala, Orandjeem... Plenty of unique oracles haven't occured yet.
The "Dictionary of Angels" by Davidson is an excellent descriptive source for existing names of the sort you seek. If you supply me a name, I'll do some tarot readings on them. In hebrew every letter is associated with mystical meaning and the whole language becomes loaded with an angelic etymology while spoken. It's part of the word made manifest phenomenon.

Krishna

from this list, i really like sage!!! personally i would consider spencer.

Anything but Jethro(Beverly Hillbillies) or Gallileo(the kids at school will make his life a living hell). From the names on the list, I prefer Jeremiah, Sage or Noah in that order.

Either Noah or Jeremiah.
If you're leaning toward the Biblical names, Josiah, Jonah, Caleb, Isaiah, and Joel are all good.

I had a friend once that was name Jeremiah and we all called him Miah.
I like Josiah though because you can call him Si.

Andrew. Best name ever.

You can only name your child Jethro if the middle name is to be Tull.

July 21st? That's my birthday, too.
What's the last name?

I like Noah the best out of those. I like Benjamin, Jakeese and Nicholis also for names for boys. I also like Orion.

Beelzebub.

Out of all of those, I like the name Noah best. I could never use it myself, though, due to associations with Noahs in my past. I love boys' names starting with the letter 'E', especially Evan. I can't use that one, either - know too many Evans.

Noah and Jeremiah are nice names.

ohmygod :)

You shouldn't assign gender roles to him. Name him Nancy or Pansy so he will become a sensitive new age left wing ice cream man.

Mick Jagger Jr. or Keith Richards Jr.
not Orion, not Noah, not Jethro, not Jesus, not Fred, and not Gallilleo

None of the above!!!

I think asking strangers on the internet is a real bad way to name your child.

I hate all the options except Noah, which is okay, I guess. This person needs a lot more creativity.

Of the names you listed, I like Noah the best, and #6 the least. A lot depends on what your last name is, and what names you and the baby's father (if he is still in the picture) choose. Congratulations and best of luck.

You have listed some really interesting names. I love Ezekiel. The other kids would probably call him Zeke. I like a lot of biblical names like Elijah, Isaiah, and Matthew. I think it is fascinating that tarot readings can be done on different names. If you get a chance, please tell me a few things about Julianne (my real name) or Julie. Thanks.

actualy i did consider alistair. My name is scott douglas jamerson. scott can mean tattoed (which i am) and douglas means dweller by the dark stream.

Sure asking strangers is a funny method, but i am not going to take the highest tally and name my child that, probably he will be called noah or orion. but this is a cool way to see what people think, and you never know, someone may suggest a name i love yet haven't thought of.

The best advice I could give is say the First, Middle and Last names out loud. Example: Steven Jacob Webber (the name I've decided to try and give my first son if I have one). It sounds good to me. So, try saying Noah something something, and Orion something something, and see how it sounds to you.

Thanks. and then HeyZeus is Je-sus (nice correlation). Were you inspired by the 'X' album with that name? and then X is the 10th card in the Tarot describing Ezekiel's wheel.

Or perhaps Die Hard With A Vengance (Samuel L. Jackson's character was named Zeus, and a couple of times someone said "Hey, Zeus!")

I left the Zeke line for you to say.
Anyhow:
Julianne - Jod, vav, Lamed, ayin, Aleph, Nun, Nun =
Hermit, heirophant, Justice, devil, Fool, Death, Death =
Internal collectivisation of spiritual constructs used with righteous authority and a critical eye softly to see all possibilities come manifest as an ever continuing tangible sequence of changes in things.
= 9 + 5 + 11 + 15 + 0 + 13 + 13 = 66 through gymatria reduces to 12 (6+6) = Mem = Hanged Man = Surrender to higher causes.
That was a few minutes. Complete readings can take hours.
Overall it says you are basically a Queen of Swords, Intellectual, self-controlled, perceptive, judicious. I've imagined you as having long blond hair like the Q. of Sw.
You should get a second opinion from Hildagard though.

Krishna

You already said that.

I think naming your son "Other" would be a fascinating experience.

Yeah I agree with Topper Name him Other, They or Them that would be a hoot.

I think you should get to know him before you try to name him.

Thanks for the reading. Actually, I have short hair. It is a dark brown with some auburn in it. It is dyed right now to cover gray, but looks pretty much like my natural color. Minus the gray, of course.

i am heyzeus because my nickname has been jesus for many years. Also, the 'Hey, Zeus!' is a side pun. i dunno who 'x' is. kings x?.

Other is a cool name...i once had a dog named later. my dad named him this because everyone kept saying 'you have to name him sooner or later'

I am consistent.

Hare Krishna!

I've heard of dogs named "hey you" and "you too".

i have a cat named dammit
and others named mars, venus, and achilles

da mit, German for 'there with'.
My cats are Volt(aire) and Schism (a faction of a church). You could call the whole collective Cerberus or Siva Trimurti.

I was visiting an occult shop today (bought more books and oils) and someone was looking for all they could on Orion (sigels and such). My web site has mystical channelleing from Orion. The first time I talked to Jesus face to face was through the vehicle of a christian named Orion.

Cerberus is good, but i have four cats, not three.
what is your website?

how about just "Six".
Honestly, some of those names seem really bad to me... keep in mind how horrible his classmates will be to him if he's got a really different name than them.

ereIam.com - I'm preparing for a major overhaul. Click on the scarab for what I'm calling orion, though I think it's from cygnus actually. Not sure, I have to get someone whor really recognizes partial constellations and celestial energy phenomenon.
Yeah, I noticed the four vs three, but I couldn't recall any 4 headed critters. My girlfriend has 4 cats too.

How 'bout the TetraHydraCannabanation?
Yeah, cygnus is a great name too, I've always liked it. Didn't he represent balance in Greek mythology?

Hey Kristal, interesting website, though I didn't see a scarab...

Go to the metaphysics section and click on the scarab or to the left of it where it says Egyptian Perfume oil and interstellar scans. That glowing blue thing is heiroglyphs from the underside of my scanning a scarab. (looks like the word laugh (laf)) I dont need any 4 headed water breathing dragons to deal with any of this stuff, or truncated-icosododechahedrons or other dinosaurs for that matter; other people do to keep up with me though. Cygnus was a (black?) swan.

Hydra is in Leo, Orion in Taurus, and Cygnus in Aquarius. Cygnus is the swan which Zeus morphed into to woo Leda, wife of the king of Sparta. My mother has a star in cygnus named after her (my doing) called 'moiras muse'.

Orion...he wants to be called Orion.

How about Hercules? But really, I love Orion, but I already told you that.

tetrahydracannabinol=THC in marijuanna, i was still suggesting a name for my collective, though I don't smoke pot...
Rush had a song cygnus x-1 where they tell the tale of a man who builds a spaceship to fly into the black hole, when he reaches the other side, he becomes the god of balance...
But I didn't know cygnus was the swan. If Cygnus was the swan that Zeus morphed into, then wouldn't the swan have been Zeus?

I like Noah...

Why do you think I threw in the word breathing? I know all my colchicine, light spectrums, etc. I had a plant that grew in offset threes rather than offset pairs. Back when I was 14, I used to play Johnny appleseed at the school, library, and police dept.'s garden. I subscribe to psychopharmacology journals where for instance you find that there is a CB2 receptor that responds to two chemicals: THC and chocolate.
Yes, like Thor (lightening (& my birth name)) becoming Freya (aurora) and other fun tales. I've been working on that balance, and praying it's not a mistake. I danced with Kali energy but still used it to Siva ends. I've found myself surrounded by black holes when I became an energy fountain. and other balances of emotional propogation, etc. It leads me to believe that I should seek that same balance, or miss half my ultimate being. The going philosophy had been to promote positive karma, but I'm beginning to think parts of me are transcending the world as personal experience.

Without Orion's, the Noah's wouldn't know where to take the ships the Bill's patronize.

I've always liked the name Noah.

How does your partner feel about these names?

she replied to it above...her name on this site is lovelight.

Okay. So will he be Orion?

um, that or noah...cause see we made a bet, and i get to name the child if it is a boy...we think it is a boy. if its a girl she will named harmony.

Maarten

I like #6 da best.
Jesus would be cool, too.
It would make you feel like mother Mary though.

no, since i am not the mother...
i am the father so maybe it would make me feel like god
*(POWERFUL BOOMING LAUGH)*

Oh sorry.
But wait, there's nothing wrong with being a God.

It's different, but not so different that he will get picked on horribly.

that is the essence of creation, after all...

what is?

Oh...Noah. I forgot that my answer didn't show up the comments. Oops - I'm still new to this...

Did I mention that he wants to be called Orion???

um...

I like Noah, I forgot about that name. For a while it was one of my favorite names for a boy. I tried to get my sister to name her son that.

So what about if it's a girl? I'd hate to see the poor kid named fuzzy, jingles, pepsi, calico, or anything else inspired by whatever your eyes fell on at the moment. You don't have another survey do you? I forgot to even think about the gender when I had my moment of chance.

Good grief. Have you no shred of respect for life? Do you forget that these are real people you're talking to, at a very sacred part of their personal lives? Even if I believed in vengeance, still, nothing would justify that sort of remark. It was not even the most ill begotten of debates, it was a pure inconsiderate hateful attack incorporating someone who has not even been born yet. Obviously you do not love your own life. I hope you learn to do so, and in the meantime, stop lashing out at those who most love theirs. Hopefully your comment is old, and you have since had a change of heart, in which case I suggest a sincere apology could go a long way on your own behalf.

Harmony Rayn....for a lovely lil' girl. No fuzzy, or jingles, or whatever...*smile & a chuckle*

Oh, you even told me that, and I still think it's beautiful. I notice that your as sexist as I am with the objective vs subjective names. My kids are L'ile Ambrose Cézanne and Ceilidh Aurora Dragonfly.
This is like the favorite weathar I mentioned last night: Rainbow misty. & it's advice to take my shower & head to the gender clinic.

Your kids have beautiful names...LOVE Rainbow Misty!!!
*smile*

L'ile Ambrose means island of the immortals. Ceilidh is gaelic for a party. It's homonym is Coeli, latin for heaven. Abbreviate the homonym and you have Cay, an island. L'ile is a water sign (cancer) and Ceilidh is an air sign (gemini).

VERY cool!! I'm a water sign and my hubby is a fire sign, Scorpio & Leo. He is right on the cusp of cancer/leo. I KNOW that this one will be a cancer.

and all three are water names.

i considered the names merlin or myrlyn and sage (my favorite but i already used that in my daughters middle name) and jesus.

I'd been thinking to explain my name.
I might have named myself Aurora or Safari but those names went to my daughter and I dog I had briefly. I have a handful of names for other personalities I keep close at hand, but I've found kristal rose phoenix to have far significance than I ever imagined at the time. Did you read 'Mists of Avalon'? My highschool girlfriend's mom, Marrion Zimmer Bradley wrote it. Those folks (D's parents) had a good deal of inspiration to what I was to become too. They both had churches in Berkeley, CA. Having been Thor, I find that Arthur has some parallels to my life.

So you have another daughter?

Yes i read mists of avalon, and just about every other arthur book ever written, including Mallory's. Crystal Caves was the best I think just because it focused so much on the old ones. i've also read plenty of arcane works refering to the holy grail. phylos mentions it in his 'dweller on two planets' as the ray that broke atlantis. many illuminati books mention it as well. umberto eco writes about it as what the illuminati is looking for.
yeah i have two daughters in oregon age 5 and 7
Cheyenne Sage and Kayla Rebehkah.

"the ray that broke atlantis", That exactly verifies my lumping it in as a synyonym for the ben-ben stone, arc of the covenant, Thor's hammer, etc. I had simply thrown it in based on feeling and things like it's portrayal in alchemical tarot cards as 6 points with a 4 pointed base much like the tree-of-life which is the best blueprint we have of it. I think you'd really enjoy "the Rabbi's Tarot", "the Sefer Yetzirah", "Spand Karikas", and "a Treatise on Cosmic Fire". The Seals of Solomon and Crowley (if you don't mind getting high knowledge from an evil alignmen) too. You'd have to get back into the mystic though to read or use much of it.

the sefir yezirah has a very familiar sound to it...
sure i have no objection with crowley, i just don't agree with some of his opinions. you just reminded me of some very wierd books i read long ago. one called telesmatic imagry, and another must have been on the queballah (sp?).

The Sefer Yetzirah and Rabbi's Tarot are excellent books on the Kaballah. Gareth Knights 'introduction to Qabalistic Symbolism vol.s 1 & 2 are also decent'. So you've heard of the Telus, eh? & Crowley, yeah he's got stellar time gates and such, but just look at a moon glyph, and you'll see that the moon was once closer. He definitely has some things wrong though. His revision of the Kabalah is more science and less God. Even the Sefer Yetzirah though is a slight treatise on basic nuclear physics.
QBLH: Qopf ~ Beth ~ Lamed ~ He : Stellar-biology/holy-ghost ~ Directed Energy ~ Justice ~ Cartesian Emperor. In other words, as said in other words, the tree-of-life, the book-of-creation.

You never did answer my question on who you are, and what you expect enlightenment to mean relative to your prior awareness.

i have to start reading again! you are reminding me of so much. i have a fanstastic ancient book called 'dictionary of the khazars' i think you would like. have you read Phylos? he lived in your area (well, closer Mt. Shasta) and wrote in the 1800's. he talked much about the future (now the past), was correct in a great deal, but mostly his books are about past lives in atlantis. in one part of dweller on two planets he takes 2 pages to describe a cd player - i was greatly suprised to figure this out, since he was just trying to describe the arcane technology of it. something like 'and man will create music using compressed rays of light, focused through crystal, thereby picking up simple patterns engraved in runic code...etc.

i am not sure what question you mean? who am i?
i can tell you what i expect from enlightenment, i think. i mean i am just not sure how to explain. i know all the things that it should be possible for me to do/think/feel that i can't, but i seek real connection with god. or else what am i doing here? on the one hand i am wasting time and thats ok. on the other hand i am wasting time and thats a crime!

a little more about the grail : it has been described as the holy fire laying lost in the sea...perhaps near avalon, perhaps near atlantis, the bermada triangle, or Thule. its also the ark.

That technology metaphor will continue to mean many new things in the future. Recall that crystals already sing (ever make a crystal radio?), and that computer chips are in essence crystals. You might enjoy reading on the science of protein crystallography, or investigate the wild things being done with crystal computers in rotating magnetic suspension. If you want to investigate nano-technology in fiction, read the 1953 play 'Insignificance' (describing soliflux), about a meeting between Einstein and M. Monroe, or Vonnegut's 'Cats Cradle' (describing ice-9) (vonnegut's brother had a lab that created full scale lightening storms), or JG Ballards 'the crystal world'. PK Dick also touches on it in some short stories. Except for contemplating the finale of this technology, this line of thinking will only get you further from enlightenment.
