[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Tziporah but I agree this is weird choice for a non Jewish family.  And your other kid has an Asian name?  This is going to be a strange combo.[/quote]

I gather OP is Asian--I'm guessing Korean--and her husband's family is Jewish by heritage, and they are trying to honor the roots of both sides of the family. Makes as much sense to me as any other naming-related chain of thought. Being more of a conformist, I might pick Rebecca or Rachel, but if they like Tziporah, why not?[/quote]

Op- Thank you!!! And we are not especially conformist, we like that the name tzipora is offbeat.[/quote]

YOU might not be conformist, and you might love the fact that Tzipora is offbeat, but your daughter is the one who has to live with it.

And I actually don't mind the name (prefer it Zipporah or Tzipporah). But it's almost like you chose a "weird" name just to demonstrate how unique and special YOU are. [/quote]

+1. Everyone will get how Kool and phlugged  OP is.[/quote]
