I am trying to come up with a Wiccan name

Hello. I am trying to come up with a Wiccan name that I like. I know I want my last name to be SilverWillow. Do you have any suggestions for a first name that will sound good? Thank you so much for your time. Blessed Be.

Hello there my dear,

Well, thankfully the manner in which one determines their “pagan” name does not have something similar to the tacky manner in which one determines their porn star pseudonym (the name of your first pet and the street you lived on when you were born)….

Unlike the moniker you may have been saddled with by your parents when you were born, when you determine your “pagan” name you have the chance to choose something that actually fits you and your personality….

Many people seem to like to incorporate the names of animals that resonate with them… or colors that particularly speak to them in some form or fashion. Others prefer to search through lists of archaic names, generally from whichever tradition they practice within and that they can thus identify with the best when choosing what their new identity will eventually be….

So, I suppose the hard and fast rule about determining your new name is simply that there really is no hard and fast rule. This is a chance for you to express yourself to the world… to make a declaration of identity that will carry with you within the faith for years to come. And as such, I would suggest that you do sit down and give it some very serious thought and reflect upon why you choose what it is that you finally choose….
