Rav Nosson Tzvi Finkel's oldest daughter-in-law is Efrat Finkel.
But I know an American Efrat who does not like her name as it was too weird in America.

Yaelle - pronounced with the emphasis on the "elle" is a beautiful name.

Totally agree - only wicked parents would ever call their daughter Chulda these days.
Orli/Orly is a name used for nonreligious circles exclusively. Yeshivish cirles would probably frown on that name.


Chulda is a name in my family. And while I don't intend to use it, I really think calling the people who named after their grandmother wicked is a bit over the top.

My DD is Shifra and I've always loved the fact that it's totally accepted and used but you're not going to find ten of them in a class.

My daughter is one of only two Zehava's in her entire grade. I love her name.

What about Odelia? There was an Odelia in my BY high school, and DD has a classmate Odelia.

You may want to consider giving two names, as that can give a name more uniqueness.

I have two names which are very common alone ( Faiga Sara) but together I have only encountered maybe two others

Don't call your baby Chulda - there is a reason it's uncommon and never gained much popularity in the Jewish world even though it belonged to a neviah - it means a rat. Yeah, I know we have bees and bears among us - but honestly, wouldn't you rather be a bee or a bear than a rat?


Not that it matters much but I'm pretty sure Chulda means a weasel.
