Unusual Christian Word Names

I really like unusual [name_m]Christian[/name_m] word names like [name_m]Saint[/name_m], Lutheran, Rosary and sort. Would love some more ideas!

Psalm
Praise
Deacon
Parable
Cross
Manna

Advent
[name_f]Easter[/name_f]
[name_u]Christmas[/name_u]
[name_u]Messiah[/name_u] (as a christian I find this rather offensive, I’d never use it, but I’ll just drop it here)
[name_f]Trinity[/name_f]
[name_f]Sunday[/name_f] (not purely christian, but I suppose it qualifies)
Lent
Hymn
[name_f]Hosanna[/name_f]
[name_m]Cross[/name_m]
[name_u]Angel[/name_u]
Dogma
[name_f]Mercy[/name_f]

Hmm…some of these aren’t very wearble, in my opinion, but ah well.

Calvary
[name_u]Temple[/name_u]
Apostle
[name_m]King[/name_m]
[name_m]Ransom[/name_m]
Harvest

Thank you for all the suggestions and the ones to come

Manna is cute! I love [name_m]King[/name_m] and i’d probably play with it some. I do love [name_u]Messiah[/name_u] even though its a little reactive. I’ve never thought of [name_m]Cross[/name_m] before and I actually like it. [name_f]Praise[/name_f], [name_m]Deacon[/name_m], [name_f]Sunday[/name_f] all good:p

An interesting idea, especially for a boy’s name. [name_f]Hope[/name_f] you find some names you love!

Favour, Rescue, Prayer, [name_m]Shepherd[/name_m], [name_m]Creed[/name_m], Passion, Covenant, Rapture, Shield, [name_m]Prosper[/name_m], Refuge, [name_u]Ash[/name_u], Prophet, Ichthys, Penance, [name_m]Thorn[/name_m]

Where have you been all my life!
Prayer has been in the back of my head (strongly leaning). [name_m]Creed[/name_m], Covenant, [name_u]Ash[/name_u], Prophet and [name_m]Thorn[/name_m] & Ichthys are just too cute.

[name_m]Creed[/name_m] and [name_u]Dove[/name_u] are my favorites.

What about Grail?

Wow! That’s amazing. So glad you found even one! :smiley: [name_f]Hope[/name_f] you get a chance to use them some day.

Some from my “Unusual” lists:

Angelus
Blessing
Chalice
Chapel
Chrism
Icon
Novena
[name_f]Sistine[/name_f]
[name_u]Vesper[/name_u]

Lately I’ve come to love the names Adeste and Fideles (like the [name_u]Christmas[/name_u] hymn LOL), preferably for girls but I think they’re generally unisex.

I have a huge soft spot for this style of name! A lot of the best ones have already been mentioned, but ones I love that I don’t think I’ve seen…

[name_f]Promise[/name_f]
[name_f]Jubilee[/name_f]
Tenebrae (a particular fave of mine)
[name_u]Jericho[/name_u]
[name_m]Sabbath[/name_m]
[name_u]Vesper[/name_u]
Maranatha
Morningstar (very much a GP)

Also, I’ll double up on plugging [name_m]Ransom[/name_m], because it’s super polarizing but I love it so much!

OH! And [name_u]Zion[/name_u], of course!

Angelus has been in the back of my head! PS also [name_f]Buffy[/name_f] reference! Chapel is cute! [name_u]Vesper[/name_u] I like as well. Low key i’m looking at blessing

OOOOOOOOOOOO Tenebrae! I would not have thought of that but it’s cute. [name_m]Sabbath[/name_m] I love! Morningstar is one I love and I am bold enough to do it! [name_f]Promise[/name_f] and [name_f]Jubilee[/name_f] would be really fun middle names.

You’ve got all the names! :stuck_out_tongue: [name_f]Miracle[/name_f], [name_u]Zen[/name_u], [name_f]Selah[/name_f], [name_u]Royal[/name_u], Beauty, [name_u]Truth[/name_u], [name_u]True[/name_u], [name_f]Heaven/name_f, Palm, [name_f]Spirit[/name_f], [name_u]Seven[/name_u] are just everything! You’ve got me thinking of so many ideas and combos so thank you.

Emmaus for a boy (eh-may-us) and [name_f]Ave[/name_f]’ for a girl (ah-vay) have been favorites of mine for a while.
