Is this name outrageous? I've always loved it - knew one, nicknamed 'Ephy' which is also one of my favorite nicknames. And the meaning is lovely. But it's too much, isn't it?

It is a beautiful, strong name and I would have used it, had I ever had a daughter. My all time favourite

It's always been a favourite of mine but the husband vetoed it. Along with Beulah.

A bit try hard and overly flouncy for me. Apologies.

I wouldn't know how to pronounce it, but if you like it go with it.

I really don't like the sound of it

I love it.

I absolutely adore the name too, and the meaning behind it (in a religious sense) it's beautiful!

I rather like it. It's no worse than Hermione or Penelope.
I once went to a Yehudi Menuhin concert and his sister Hephzibah was accompanying. I thought it was a lovely name.

I think it depends on what your surname is tbh. If you’ve got a one syllable simple surname you might be able to pull it off, but if it would end up being something like Hephzibah Williams-Hamilton
