I know I’ve gotten gushy on you before, but I just want to say it again — you’re all so great!! I just finished up responding to some emails and putting together consultations and I’m just constantly blown away by the great people this blog has connected me to. What a blessing to “know” so many faith-filled people! I love each and every one of your stories, and I constantly feel the amazingness of the privilege it is to be invited into the intimacy of your families. God is so good. ❤
One of my online friends was kind enough to add me to a late Fall/early Winter due date Catholic Mom group and that’s where I found out about your blog! They’re all recommending and raving about Sancta Nomina! It’s a treat to be privy to such a nice corner of the Catholic blogosphere (and in that group) after some not-so-nice experiences elsewhere 🙂

Thank you for that compliment! I can’t wait to share our names for #5, and maybe get some middle name help once we find out the sex next week! (Assuming BOY again, but you never know, heh.)

Thank you for having a place online for faith based name conversations. It’s always been part of the Catholic tradition to value the significance behind a name. My favorite Catholic name story is when I was in Ireland, I met an older woman who said, “You’re from America. Do you know my daughter in Chicago? Her name is Dymphna after the saint.” Of course, it was a little amusing that she thought America was small enough that I would have run into her daughter by now but the touching part followed when she described St Dymphna and why her daughter was named for her. why her daughter was named for her. I have been enjoying reading stories like that here. Thank
