I like this name and would love to name my son that but my husband doesn't love it. I like unique, uncommon names and also that it is biblical. It is getting to be very popular lately and I wish my husband understood. Oh well! maybe I can get it for our son's middle name at least!

We are naming our son Elijah! I am not a big fan but my hisband really likes it. It is growing on me also.
Only for Elijahs!
