I like t...There is also Esprit, as in St. Esprit. <br /><br />I like the idea of using the name Spirit, and although you say it makes religious overtones plain (true), it also makes them ambiguous, because if I met someone called Spirit, I wouldn't be certain whether they'd been named so in honour of a Catholic, Orthodox, Pentecostal, Theosophical, Swedenborgian, New Age or Pagan tradition, or something less defined.<br /><br />I have seen the name Spirita used as a feminine form in the Middle Ages.Teddy Bluehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11378901507001179689noreply@blogger.com
