Please widen my horizons of biblical names!

[BumpPlus2]

I love names like Lucas, Micah, Noah, Seth, Saul, Cassian, Balthazar...but I am struggling to find 'the one' for DC3. Girls names are sorted but I have 2 DS's (with biblical/Hebrew names) so am thinking it's more than likely this one will be my hat trick baby so I really need to find a name! Please help me with lots of suggestions!

[BumpPlus2]

Thanks ladies!

Some GREAT ideas here!

Already used Isaac as a mn...but there are some shortlist possibilities already!

[5inthebed]

Aaron,
Daniel,
Samuel

[nocake]

I think Methuselah is due a revival.... maybe?

[BumpPlus2]

Hmmmm not sure nocake although I love Meth/Meths as a nn

[CPtart]

I have an Adam and a Luke. Aso like Isaac and Jacob.

[grubbalo]

I love Elijah but I'm not allowed it as is "too" religious bearing in mind we already have one bible name apparently!!

[BumpPlus2]

Thanks (so far) again

I must say I am more of a fan of the lesser syllabled names...Samson, Ethan, Elijah etc and although the more well known (Isaac, Jacob) are lovely I am looking for something a little bit different.

You have all been a great help so far....and nocake has made me chuckle x

[raindroprhyme]

just found my list, i have a Joseph, Caleb, and Seth. Caleb was goign to be Jacob and Seth was goign to be Elias but didn't suit once they arrived.

[said]

Asher and Jesse are my all time (for today) favorite names

[oooggs]

Zephaniah
Barnabas
Joel

friend has these 3 names for her 3 boys

[PorkChopSter]

Elijah
Josiah
Gideon - I have one of these There are infinite possibilities for nicknames. The responses from other people have been varied - the best was a very loud "HA " followed by "how fantastic " - with more than one person saying they had considered it but not been brave enough to use it. Isaac was our no.1 choice - I'm so glad we changed our minds.

[peacemoon]

I have a Seth,Jared and Saul (& an Eve). I love biblical names as you can tell! But I also liked Ezra,Elijah and Eli.and hundreds more!

[CappuccinoCarrie]

I know a Gideon, Elijah and Josiah and a couple of Judes. We have had Caleb on our list every time, and my all time favourite name is Joel which is increasingly popular. Simeon is also a lovely name and was a dude in the Bible.

[raindroprhyme]

It turned out really special that we called our Caleb that and not Jacob because of the meaning and who he was in the bible.
sometimes worth havign a flick through the bible rather than picking one out of thin air.
