[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]People may get over it, but honestly many Jewish people will think it is a bit clueless or tacky. If you named your non-Jewish kid I would assume you had no Jewish friends and were not very cosmopolitan/educated. Same way I would feel if you named your daughter Tova or Aviva. [/quote] David is a Jewish name. Miriam is a Jewish name. Would a Gentile baby with either of those names seem clueless or tacky to you? Hebrew is a beautiful language.[/quote] That's not really the point. The point is that Ari is heavily *ethnically* Jewish at the moment. David is not. Miriam moreso, but not as much as Ari. But do whatever you want - it's your right to name your kid whatever you want, but be fully informed as to how some people will hear it. [/quote]
