I seem to be super drawn to [name_u]Christian[/name_u]/Biblical/virtue names at the moment (as well as some generally popular names), so I’d love some ideas/inspiration in case I’ve missed any or not thought of them yet myself!
A lot of Biblical place names are beautiful! Such as:
[name_f]Zorah[/name_f]
[name_f]Selah[/name_f]
[name_f]Moriah[/name_f]
[name_f]Marah[/name_f]
[name_f]Lydda[/name_f]
[name_u]Ariel[/name_u]
[name_u]Shiloh[/name_u]
[name_u]Eden[/name_u]
Virtue names are another meaningful option:
[name_f]Verity[/name_f]
[name_f]Amity[/name_f]
[name_f]Faith[/name_f]
[name_f]Grace[/name_f]
[name_f]Hope[/name_f]
[name_f]Joy[/name_f]
[name_f]Glory[/name_f]
[name_f]Charisma[/name_f]
[name_f]Clarity[/name_f]
[name_u]Honor[/name_u]
[name_f]Serenity[/name_f]
The only one I like is [name_f]Lydia[/name_f], as in [name_f]Lydia[/name_f] of Thyatira. I’m not really into this style of names, but I like the story of how she went “against the grain” to be the first European convert. That’s the kind of individualist, free-thinking, and independent lesson I want for my kid.
I have [name_f]Amity[/name_f] on my UC (so I LOVE that name) but I don’t consider it [name_u]Christian[/name_u]/Biblical However, if I used that name for my child, I wouldn’t be upset if other people assumed that connection
I’m gonna give you everything I can think of at the moment because this is probably my specialty.
