Very pretty. According to my boss she was the first feminist(?!) I'm afraid I don't know my old testament well enough to comment.

well i suppose my definition of biblical was a name in the bible...
In my case Judith is first mentioned as one of the wives of Esau (and from the hittite tribe) and is generally thought to be the feminine form of Judah which means the praise of the Lord, but most of these names would have been common in the surrounding areas too

Exactly. Judith daughter of Beeri the Hittite (now there's a fine name... OP, perhaps you could use Beeri if this turns out to be a DS rather than a DD) is in Genesis 26:34, and Genesis isn't deuterocanonical by any definition I've ever seen.

Ruth, Miriam both lovely
