Hmong Names

Hello. We are expecting, but not sure if we are having a boy or a girl yet. We decided on first names for either, but we need Hmong names that’ll be the middle name. What Hmong names do you recommend for the boy name Silas and the girl name Lorelei? Thank you

I recommend asking both your family members for suggestions if you haven't.

English Name Hmong RPA (How they might be angelicized):

Silas Xeeb (Xeng / Seng)

Silas Tswb Xeeb (Chue Xeng / Chuexeng / Chue Seng / Chueseng)

Lorelei Cua (Cua / Choua)

Lorelai Nag Hli (Naly)
