Myrtle...um, I mean, Esther

Reading through the book of Esther tonight and came across this in a commentary:
Esther (whose Jewish name Hadassah means "Myrtle"...)
Somehow, "Myrtle" just doesn't have the ring of a beautiful young woman, does it?

Yeah, Myrtle doesn't work for me, but I LOVE Hadassah. If God should ever choose to bless us with another little girl, that's the name I'm hoping for. Ever read The Mark of the Lion series by Francine Rivers? Hadassah was the name of the heroin in that book....loved her.
