Our son's name is Zayin Matthew, (Zayin is the 7th letter of the hebrew alphabet. All of our sons will have middle names from the bible. And our girls get virtue middle names: Arabella Faith & Avianna Peace. We also like Hope, Patience, Grace, & Glory - Rachael Thu, 02 Apr 2009 19:39:43 +0100 http://www.babyhold.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=163&Itemid=14#pc_29002 I named my son Noah. I prayed about it and God gently put this name on my heart. I desire for my son to not conform to this world and to be set apart for God like Noah was. Other names that I love are: Boys: Ezra Jonah Micah Josiah Luke Girls: Noelle Lydia Eliza Esra (okay, I love this one for a girl too!) - April Fri, 23 Jan 2009 08:27:27 +0100 http://www.babyhold.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=163&Itemid=14#pc_26301 I named my son Josiah. I liked the sound of it and it has many possibilities for nicknames (Joe, Joey, Jose) though I only call him by his given name. I knew the name was of a king from the Old Testament but that wasn't my main reason for choosing it. Mostly everyone loves it. It's not overused or off-the-wall either. Hope that helps someone :) - galesburgbrat Fri, 10 Oct 2008 18:21:15 +0100 http://www.babyhold.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=163&Itemid=14#pc_25685 In response to katherine. My son's name is adam james. But if it was up to me i would have named him Lucas james. i absolutely love the name lucas. I think Lucas Andrew sounds precious. Hope it helps. Good luck!! - Lianna Padilla Mon, 15 Sep 2008 23:35:50 +0100 http://www.babyhold.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=163&Itemid=14#pc_25556 I'm an expectant father in 7 months time. and I want my baby to be named after Bible Characters. - Jenny Boy Gallo Thu, 11 Sep 2008 06:27:36 +0100 http://www.babyhold.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=163&Itemid=14#pc_25398 My Fiancee and I are planning to name our first child Malachi Eliab or Maranatha Trinity Havilah. Meaning: Malachi(Messanger of God) Eliab(God is my father) Maranatha(Our Lord Comes) Trinity(Three) Havilah(meaning Circular, but was apart of the Garden of Eden) - Haley Fri, 05 Sep 2008 20:25:56 +0100 http://www.babyhold.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=163&Itemid=14#pc_25176 I just found out I am expecting a boy, due in January. We cannot come up with a boy's first name. The middle name will be Andrew, after my late brother. any suggestions are welcome! Thanks-K - katherine Wed, 27 Aug 2008 13:08:06 +0100 http://www.babyhold.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=163&Itemid=14#pc_24716 I've chosen some names for my future kids some of which I use when writing (the girls are also named after the Bennet sisters in Pride and Prejudice and the last is named after my aunt too). I also like Adam and John. 1. Daniel Jacob 2. Elijah Joshua 3. Elizabeth Jane 4.

And it just so happens that we found this name in 'Tirsa' but we've changed our daughters spelling of it to 'THIRZAH'- meaning Pleasantness and Beautiful. - Luatua Sat, 07 Jun 2008 11:46:53 +0100 http://www.babyhold.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=163&Itemid=14#pc_22749 I think biblical names are very beautiful. I am searching for a good one for my third son who is expected in September. My Fiance's brother just named our nephew Nehemiah, which I thought was kind of strange at first. But then I grew to love it. But now I have a hard time with the nickname that most people call him which is Nemo. Why take a beautiful name like that and give it a fishes name?? But I guess I'll have to wait until he can speak for himself about that name. - Nicole Wed, 04 Jun 2008 03:11:19 +0100 http://www.babyhold.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=163&Itemid=14#pc_22660 Hi Julie, I think that the name Jezebel is beautiful and if you love it, use it. I certainly wouldn't be thinking of the negative connotations of the name - how many people really know the story? And let's hope that no one would be rude enough to make a nasty comment to you on your choice of name!! Go for it girlfriend! - Leah Gillespie Fri, 30 May 2008 09:32:24 +0100 http://www.babyhold.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=163&Itemid=14#pc_21528 There are a lot of beautiful names here! My husband and I have five lion-hearts and just found out we're pregnant again! Our children's names are either from the Bible or give a reference to God. My first-born is Olivia Joi -- Olivia referring to the Olive, which, in the Bible is what was pressed and used for annointing and represented the Holy Spirit. Joi because she was our first born and is definitely spirit-filled and a JOY! Our second child is Hallie, which we took from Hallelujah! :-) Our third is Gabriel, like the arch angel meaning "strong man of God." Our fourth and 1st-born twin is Eva -- from Eve -- meaning "life" or "mother of all the living." Our fifth and 2nd-born twin is Michael Amadeus -- Michael, also an arch angel meaning "who is like God?", and Amadeus (if you're familiar with Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart) meaning "love for God." Pray for us!!! I've heard that once you have a set of fraternal twins, you're twice as likely to have another set the next time around! :-) God Bless!!! - Angie Tue, 15 Apr 2008 20:01:49 +0100 http://www.babyhold.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=163&Itemid=14#pc_21458 My daughters name is Israel Jolee-Zion. We love her name and have gotten MANY compliments : )I am due in June with a boy and we are still searching. - jessica Sun, 13 Apr 2008 01:26:29 +0100 http://www.babyhold.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=163&Itemid=14#pc_21387 I have a friend named Noel. Many people when they see its spelling prononce it Nole. It would always annoy her. She mentioned once that of all her teachers and everyone who saw her name and tried pronounce it a total of two pronounced it correctly. She even had a teacher for art in grade school her each year would mispronounce it. As for names from the bible, I always liked Saul or Nebudchadnezzer - Ency Peterson Thu, 10 Apr 2008 00:22:35 +0100 http://www.babyhold.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=163&Itemid=14#pc_20237 My 3rd child's name is Ezra. I love his name. It isn't a normal name but it isn't totally wierd either. My husband and I are religious and we love that it is a Bible name. We get a lot of positive comments. (And it's a good test to see if people really know the Bible.) - SKEmomma Thu, 20 Mar 2008 02:29:32 +0100 http://www.babyhold.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=163&Itemid=14#pc_18748 My husband and I are looking for another Biblical name for our daughter to be born in June... we liked Jael at first but I was just wondering how many people mispronounce or seem to dislike your name? I think it's beautiful, but I just don't want people to think that it's pronounced "jail". Any advice/feedback with personal experience is appreciated! - starfish Tue, 04 Mar 2008 18:31:08 +0100 http://www.babyhold.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=163&Itemid=14#pc_18676 My name is Jael, pronounced J-L. My parent's found my name in Judges, Jael is a bringer of justice and a winner of peace. The name means the Abundance of God. I LOVE my name, it's totally unique and fits me perfectly. - Jael Tue, 04 Mar 2008 05:24:37 +0100 http://www.babyhold.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=163&Itemid=14#pc_16266 I named my daughter Sarai and I love it. People always comment on how unusual it is. I'm hoping to name my boy Ezra or Ezekiel. - wehi Sat, 23 Feb 2008 02:03:55 +0100 http://www.babyhold.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=163&Itemid=14#pc_15324 My mother and father could only agree on one name: Tahrae. Tahrae is a different spelling for Terah who is the father of Abraham. It is pronounced just like it is spelled, Tah-rae. Most people just call me Rae though. - Tahrae Tue, 19 Feb 2008 05:06:33 +0100 http://www.babyhold.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=163&Itemid=14#pc_14541 I love biblical names: My son's are Isaiah Gabriel, Ezekiel Nahshon, Elijah Matthew, Jordan Hezekiah, we are expecting soon and leaning toward Anaiah for girl and Nehemiah for a boy. - Darla Thu, 14 Feb 2008 20:14:52 +0100
