I am trying to come up with suggestions for baby names - My preference is a Biblical/Literary combination as a First/Middle name. Any suggestions?

That is a nice idea to name your child. What about instead of naming him/her after a character in a book, name him/her after the author?

Boy: Isaiah Clemens [Clemens: Samuel Clemens also: Mark Twain- author of The Adventures of Tom Sawyer and The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn.]

Boy: Elijah Snicket [Snicket: Lemony Snicket-author of The Series of Unfortunate Events.]

Girl: Naomi Balliett [Elizabeth: "Blue" Balliett Klein- author of Chasing Vermeer (most famous work)]

Girl: Elizabeth Susan [Susan: Character from The Chronicles of Narnia.]
