I'm having a daughter in a couple of months and we haven't yet decided on a name. I'm a firm believer that a person's name has some effect on their future or personality, and some studies suggest the flow of a name and its acronym (eg. John Dee Smith --> JDS) does impact personality. I want a strong name.
>Wife's choices
Heather
Eve
Rachel
>My choices
Catherine
Margaret
Clara
Catherine is my top pick because it's associated with strong women from history and is a versatile name (Catherine, Cathy, Caitlin, Cat, etc). My wife's is Eve.
If it matters, we're both Roman Catholics with ancestry Italian on my side and Dutch on my wife's, but this is fairly distant (we're 4th generation Canadians).
