Bible names

[Dad2Be2018]

I was born with a biblical name, also 95% of my family are also born with bible names

That's nice

I was born without a name. It took my parents over a week to choose one - which coincidentally is also a name found in the bible.

My name is the name of a saint... The middle name however is biblical.

Wow, I didn't have a name for a couple of weeks. I didn't realise some babies were born with names, makes it easier for those parents though I suppose

What was the name chosen

I don't think names should ever be made before the birth, I think when you see the child you know it's name, well! It may take afew days maybe even a week but make sure its correct for the baby, don't be a sheep and name them to do with the year of the "royal wedding' hocus pocus.

I don't have a Biblical name.

I see you have opinions...

What is hocus pocus?

What's the purpose of this thread exactly?

It may take afew days maybe even a week but make sure its correct for the baby, don't be a sheep and name them to do with the year of the "royal wedding' hocus pocus.

Babies aren't allowed to be nameless for more than 3 days where I live...

So yes, I want / need a list with names I like / could live with before giving birth.

Or we may end up using a name I hate.

I'm confused - do you want some suggestions for names from the Bible?

Erm - Wasn't Jesus named before he was born?

We sorted the name out before birth because we hadn't been together that long and it was one of the first things we had to negotiate together. It made it all more real for us both. We took the name from a film which was popular at the time. Still wish we'd gone for Diesel or Rock.

Reminds me that Peter means "Rock", the disciple named Peter who was called Simon before that.

Also Saulus to Paulus.

Jacob to Israel etc...

My grandson is a prophet

Barbie's real name is Barbara Millicent Roberts.

Shockingly Biff, Chip and Kipper are not their real names. True fact.

All my children were born with names. As were the children of all my friends. Where I live, it's very unusual not to pick and share the name before the birth.

I love the idea that giving a baby a name before it's born automatically means that you're going to name it after a celebrity child .

My children have saints' names, chosen before they were born. Put that in your pipe and smoke it!

I don't get this thread but it's making me chuckle!

Until Shiloh come.

Sorry?
