[sirhandel]

Any ideas??

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_biblical_names

Try that - it lists all the names used in the bible or try this www.biblical-baby-names.com/names.html

Bithiah
Yael
Zipporah
Shifra
Sarai
Ruth
Keturah
Ketziah/Keziah
Moriah
Jerusha
Huldah
Sherah

Zillah

DD1's best friend is called Avishag...

Ruth

Naomi.

Mary is very unusual these days.

Judith, not very fashionable at all just now.

Bethia
Bethel
Hephzibah
Bathsheba
Esther
Keziah
Jerusha
Mehetabel
Naamah
Adah
Susannah
Elisheba
Miriam

Ruth

I was going to say Keziah but I've been beaten to it!

Cherith, of course.

Always Cherith.

Isn't Anaiah a biblical name?

A friend of mine recently called her dd this. Not my cup of tea though.

Zillah (my paternal grandmother's name)
Miriam
Susannah - not popular these days
Rebecca - can't think of a single Rebecca I know under the age of 20
Ruth
Esther

Aside from Zillah, which even in my family is considered very unusual, none of these are particularly odd and all look fairly obvious in terms of spelling and pronunciation.

Good luck!!

I love Zillah

Abigail is biblical and not unpopular but not everywhere either

Leah?

Judith

Love Candace but fear it may get abbreviated to Candy!

"And he arose and went : and, behold , a man of Ethiopia, an eunuch of great authority under Candace queen of the Ethiopians, who had the charge of all her treasure, and had come to Jerusalem for to worship."
Acts 8:27

Delilah.............................

Oh and look here too

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_biblical_names_starting_with_C
says "Candace, who possesses contrition[3]"

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Candace

Also, quite like Daphne meaning Laurel tree. But Laurel is also listed as a Biblical name - The laurel or bay plant.

www.biblical-baby-names.com/meaning-of-laurel.html

Origin - Latin (Greek - Daphne).
Laurel is an evergreen and fragrant plant. Its leaves and young branches were woven into a crown with which the winner of the Olympic games was rewarded. The laurel is not mentioned in the Bible, but an allusion is made to it many times. The laurel crown is perishable, but the true believers shall recieve the crown of glory which will never fade away. (1 Peter 5:4, 1 Corinthians 9:25).

Anani
Adaliah
Acacia
Deborah
Elisheba
Jerusha
Lois
Miriam
Sapphira
Rebekah
Tamar

oh, not Zillah, please. We had a frightful student teacher called this and everyone called her Godzilla (apparently a movie monster; I didn't know)

Deborah. its my " cousin" (step fathers sister) name my aunt said they had it from the bible and she was a " strong woman"
