A name from the Bible?

Tylerhb33 · November 5, 2024, 8:51pm

We are having a #3 baby. We are not sure the sex. We have two Sons: [name_m]Hudson[/name_m] [name_m]James[/name_m] & [name_m]Crew[/name_m] [name_m]William[/name_m]. Our last name is [name_m]Roberts[/name_m]. We are [name_m]Christian[/name_m] and have always thought of giving one of our kids a name from the Bible… but have not landed a name we love… are there any Bible names that are unusual, unique, or maybe common that would go with our last name and with the other two siblings? Thanks!

[name_m]Elim[/name_m] sprang to mind. Very unusual, but not so far from [name_m]Liam[/name_m] in sound and I think it flows beautifully with your surname and brother names. Good luck!

I really love the suggestion of [name_m]Shepherd[/name_m]. [name_m]Hudson[/name_m], [name_m]Crew[/name_m] and [name_m]Shep[/name_m] sound really nice.
