Her chinese name Kye has the picture of Chinese caligraphy in mind and generally gives the idea of “upright” – Xin simply means “heart”.
the meanings surrounding the name “Elysia” = sweetly blissful – completely happy and contented – latin origin – blessed home …
as far as popularity is concerned 🙂 According to Think! Baby Names –> The name Elysia was not ranked among 4275 first names for females of all ages in the 1990 U.S. Census. The name Elysia was not ranked among 88799 surnames for males and females of all ages in the 1990 U.S. Census. We’ve never been too worried about the value of being popular *grin* . When was Gareth or Sivin a popular name? hehhehehe …
OOO… home already!! We were planning to visit the new one in hospital this afternoon- must see if home visit is OK by them! 🙂
My wife really likes the name Elise, but I like the sound and the Latin roots of Elysia. Perhaps it will be a bit more popular in a few months. 🙂
