Hi everyone,

I am looking for names that might connote happiness or joy for a baby girl. Any names folks want to post (even ones that might be a bit of a stretch is fine too).

Gila
Rena
Ditza
Chedva
Simcha
Fraida
were my initial thoughts, mentioned above.

Slightly off -
Shalva, peacefulness, because with peacefulness is happiness and content, and then Shulamis

I personally love shifra - there is a passuk in thrilling that really resonates with me - "af nachala s shafra alai"- my inheritance portion/lot is beautiful/pleasing to me.that's the attitude of a happy person. Sameiach bechelko.
It's a little off, but somewhat connected, and works if you like Shifra!!! Smile
