Hi,
I was reading with great interest, that I am not the only one obsessed with baby names.
I was thinking about names in our family and noticed that Eth and all of his cousins have a "H" in their first name and if we have another baby, maybe we should look at following that trend. Then I noticed that ETHAN is made up of letters from my name and DP's name. (It wasn't planned that way.) My name is Helen and DP is Matthew.

So here is the challenge... Can anyone come up with other names made from the letters H E L E N M A T T H E W that is not too strange? Maybe you'll be naming our next bub!!! ;)

Hi
This is fun
What about Elena (or is too close to Helen?)

Or Lena, Helena (I've always loved Helena)

I'll think of some more and come back later

Ok I have some more (sorry if I double up with anyone - is that extra points:D )

Girls
Thelma, Mea (?pron Mia), Melanee, Lane, Elane, Melante (sounds like a car? "The new Melante", but I like the sound), Tatem

Boys
Nathen, Walen, Walt, Ewan, Hew, Neal, Emett, Alen

Best of luck (it's easier if you allow reusing letters, but I'm not sure of the rules of this game:D )
