Josh and Anna give meaning of Baby #6's name

The day before Thanksgiving, Josh and Anna announced that baby girl Duggar was born and they named her Maryella Hope Duggar. 

Many of their viewers wanted to know the meaning behind their daughter's name and here it is: 

So many of you have asked...so here’s the story behind the name Maryella Hope! 👶🏻
Soon after we found out baby #6 was a girl we began name discussing name ideas and we thought we had it narrowed down. 📜
When Josh’s grandma passed away we considered the name Mary, but we were hesitant because Grandma (Mary Duggar) was such a special lady and we wanted our daughter’s name to be a reminder of how special Grandma was and carry on her legacy, but without feeling like we were trying to replace her. 👵🏼
Soon, our baby name list that we had narrowed down to 3 names had grown to a list of about dozen Mary-hyphenated names. As we continued chatting about names, Josh and I both fell in love with the name Maryella! ♥️
We chose Hope for her middle name because of the Hope we have because of Jesus’ life, death and resurrection. Jesus is the ultimate demonstration of love and hope. Jesus layed down His sinless life on the cross so we could be forgiven of our sins and one day live with Him in heaven forever when we die. We have Hope because of Christ! ✝️
During Maryella’s pregnancy there were so many unexpected joys, which included several more pregnancy announcements from family members! We also grieved alongside those we love the most, remembering life is fragile and sometimes very short. Even through the grief of the loss of loved ones we know that we have comfort, hope and strength as we look forward to one day being reunited in heaven with Jesus and our loved ones who are waiting for us there! 💕
Maryella Hope Duggar is such a blessing and we are so grateful for her!
