Two Thumbs Up For Eden and Savannah
Wednesday, March 7, 2007
The verdict is in, Mrs. Feiler Faster reports, thumbs up on Desperate Housewives' star Marcia Cross's decision to name her twin daughters Eden and Savannah. No less an authority than "Celebrity Baby Names" blog (insert "Wow, there's a blog for everything," line here), declares:
The name Eden is well-documented, and means “place of pleasure” in Hebrew.
“Savannah,” well-known as a famous city in Georgia, has less clear roots. One website believes the word, which means “grassy plain,” comes from the Native American word zabana. Another site claims “Savannah” is of Spanish origin.
Roots aside, I give Cross and Mahoney a “thumbs up” for the pair of names. It’s twice as hard coming up with names for twins, and Eden and Savannah has a nice, original ring to it.
Given the coincidence(!?) with the names of our daughters, Eden and Tybee, I can't say her this thumbs up is getting universal approval over here...
