Hi, wondering if there are any mums/mums2b out there who know any cool jewish names but still with bible elements to it?

oops sorry just realised it has already been said . Although I do live in Norwich and every second building is an Aviva one, so it really really wouldn't be a good name to use here!.

Aviva is the new name of Norwich Union.....

rubyslippers · 14/05/2009 10:40

Lots of hebrew names/biblical like Leora, Talia, Yael, Ariella etc

Azriel - means Angel of the Lord (boy)
Boaz - this rocks big style and was King David's son's name IIRC

Hannah
Lior for a boy
Saul

Keren - like this a lot

thell · 14/05/2009 10:34

Leah
Martha
Elizabeth / Elisheba
Keziah

Seth (I love it!)

frazzledgirl · 14/05/2009 09:22

OMG yes, had completely forgotten about that!

Shame, because I do think it's lovely. It means 'springtime'.

Apparently Viva is an alternative version.

I also like Aliza - "gift of joy, joyous one" and Eliana, "my God has answered".

avenginggerbil · 14/05/2009 09:16

FG - as in the 'new name for Norwich Union'???

frazzledgirl · 14/05/2009 08:30

Aviva is really pretty, I think.

tummytickler · 13/05/2009 23:26

My ds's are Elijah and Amos. I get asked if we are Jewish a lot!
Also love Abraham and Moses.
I know a Rabii Levi, and Rabii Sarah.

Also love Miriam

ninedragons · 13/05/2009 23:22

I loved Yael, but it wouldn't have worked at all with our Celtic surname.

dizzydixies · 13/05/2009 22:34

and lovely names they are too IlanaK

IlanaK · 13/05/2009 22:28
