Jehoshaphat

{Biblical king who had a peaceful and prosperous reign.}

This name intrigues me.

[name_m]How[/name_m] do you perceive it?

One of the cutest babies I’ve ever met was named Jehoshaphat! I’ve loved it ever since, but I always get weird looks when I mention it. Probably b/c of the last syllable? I think it fits in line with the other names on your list!

Oh, my heart is melting :).

Was that in the United States?

The expression “Jumpin’ Jehoshaphat” is all that comes to mind…

Ha! That’s what I was going to say.

I have to admit, it took me a good 10 minutes of staring at this name to say it correctly! I’m not so sure it’d be good for a first name, but it could make a nice middle name to a more plain, standard boys name (ie; [name_m]Daniel[/name_m], [name_u]Noah[/name_u], [name_u]Aiden[/name_u], [name_m]William[/name_m], - the names you see just about everywhere).

It sounds like a really cool name, but I prefer [name_m]Ptolemy[/name_m].

I like it in theory but I think it’s a bit too much for anyone to pull off in real life.
