We call his name, Seth.
In God's loving counsel and will, we lost our first two children early in their conceptions. Seth, is the evidence of God's merciful encouragement to us after the previous losses. "And Adam knew his wife again; and she bare a son, and called his name Seth: For God, said she, hath appointed me another seed instead of Abel, whom Cain slew." (Gen. 4:25)
It is also our prayer for men to begin calling upon the name of the LORD again - if not in our generation, it will be in our son's generations, or if not, in his son's, God willing. Amen. "And to Seth, to him also there was born a son; and he called his name Enos: then began men to call upon the name of the LORD." (Gen 4:26)
The suffix -ia in Sethia alludes to the Indonesian word 'setia' which means 'faithful'.
"Putra" simply means "Son" in Indonesian; it is the middle name after my father's (Don Putra Gotama). :)
