Letter M is up next; and that brings us half-way through the alphabet!
For as long as I can remember, I’ve been partial to the names Mykal (girl) and Merrick (boy), but there are other M-names that I really like as well. And here they are! 🙂

MacKenzie — daughter of a wise leader;
a fiery woman
Madalynn/Maddi — woman from Magdala
Mallory — unlucky
Mikayla/Makayla — who is like God?
Morgan — the bright sea
Mercedes — merciful
* * * *
BOY
Merrick — dark-skinned

Markus — dedicated to Mars, the god of war

See my previous posts HERE. And be sure to come back for another post next Friday! 🙂
I was listening to a comedian on BBC Radio the other day. He asked someone in the audience what her name was. She said Mikayla (or however you choose to spell it, lol). He responded that it was an unusual name and asked where her parents got it. She said she didn’t know, and that she didn’t know anyone else with that name. It made me do a mental double-take because that name is soooo common here in the states!

Well, *obviously* I’m partial to one of those girl names on your list. 😉
I would have never thought of Maddox and Merrick, but they are really beautiful names for boys! I like them both! 😀 And Michael is one of my favorite boy names of all time. If I ever have a son, I’m going to give him that middle name. 🙂

Really? Hm… I wonder which one… 😛
Thanks, M! 😉 Michael is my dad’s name & was almost my middle name. I’ve always liked it. 🙂
