We want to name after someone who wasn't frum whose Jewish name was Yehudis, and we were told to add a name.

We can't use the following names:

Esther
Rochel
Sarah
Chaya
Sheva
Malka
Miriam
Devorah

I'm open to hearing all other ideas, even those "out of the box"!

This woman was a strong, smart, poised, generous, giving, gracious, loving woman who meant so much to her family. Any names that have meanings tied to those qualities would be even more meaningful.

TIA!

Yehudis Chana comes to mind first.

Thanks all!

Love the ideas of Chana and Atara so far.

Any other ideas?

Yehudis Gavriela, for strength.
Yehudis Avigayil, for meaning so much to her family, though that’s a stretch. I also like Yehudis Liba suggested above, and Yehudis Ahuva though that’s a mouthful.
Yehudis Rivka, for generosity.

I feel like Yehudis flows better as the second name, than as the first. I know a Rochel Yehudis and a Miriam Yehudis, both beautiful names.

Thanks again y'all!

I agree that the Yehudis flows better as the second name.

Bracha Yehudis is beautiful but for some reason DH doesn't like the name.

Liba Yehudis is also pretty but a family member named her daughter Liba recently and I would feel a little like a copycat if we did.

I like the suggestion of Tehila by one of the amothers.

Some of the suggestions are gorgeous but we can't use the names cuz they're already in the family (Miriam, Sarah, Rochel)

The name Gavriella is so pretty but I doubt it would fly with DH.

I think that since Yehudis is 3 syllables, it goes better with a 2 syllable name.

Yehudit Yael (Yehudit in the times of the Maccabim remembered Yael from Neviim) both very brave women who were willing to sacrifice it all

Yehudit Tehila (sounds good and makes the name more "religious")
