Yes Felix is a name in the bible. He was the Roman Procurator General of Judea.
There has also been 4 popes who chose to use the name Felix and there is also a Saint Felix.

Hezekiah! Is that a girl or boys name?

Hezekiah is a boy's name. I guess you are thinking of Keziah who was the daughter of Job.

Reuben, Seth and Amos are my favourites

Elijah
Elias
Saul
Jonah
Micah
Isaac
Zachariah

I'd happily use any of these for a child but Dh thought otherwise.
Ezekiel
Samuel

Enoch is a gorgeous name!

Angel names
Michael
Gabriel
Raphael
Amanadiel
Uriel

No! No! No! Enoch Powell did not live up to his namesake! Remember, Enoch walked with God and God took him.

Zebedee

Job
Lot

Justus and Israel are my favourites, I like Solomon too.

Really wanted Israel for ds2 but dh wasn't keen.

Iove Silas

I like Matthias. He was the guy chosen to be the replacement Disciple for Judas.
