I like [name_m]Abram[/name_m] best. In order: [name_m]Abram[/name_m], [name_m]Caleb[/name_m], [name_m]Abel[/name_m], [name_u]Jesse[/name_u].

I like all of them to varying degrees but I would rate them as follows:

1 [name_m]Abram[/name_m]
2 [name_u]Jesse[/name_u]
3 [name_m]Abel[/name_m]
4 [name_m]Caleb[/name_m]

My top 10: [name_m]Ezra[/name_m], [name_m]Joshua[/name_m], [name_m]David[/name_m], [name_m]Daniel[/name_m], [name_m]Benjamin[/name_m], [name_m]Samuel[/name_m], [name_m]Elijah[/name_m], [name_m]Jonah[/name_m], [name_m]Thomas[/name_m], [name_m]Luke[/name_m]

[name_m]Joshua[/name_m] is one if my favorites also but popular in my family.

8

I like [name_m]Abel[/name_m] best, then [name_m]Abram[/name_m]. [name_m]Caleb[/name_m] is very popular, at least where I live and [name_u]Jesse[/name_u] is ok but isn’t my style.

  1. [name_m]Caleb[/name_m]
  2. [name_u]Jesse[/name_u]
  3. [name_m]Abram[/name_m]
  4. [name_m]Abel[/name_m]
10

I like all of them, but I’ve been crushing on [name_m]Abel[/name_m] lately. I also really like [name_u]Jesse[/name_u].

11

I like [name_m]Abel[/name_m] the best.

12

I voted for [name_u]Jesse[/name_u]. I think [name_u]Jesse[/name_u] is one of the ultimate male biblical names! I love the name. :slight_smile: The Father of [name_m]King[/name_m] [name_m]David[/name_m]… and of coarse the [name_u]Jesse[/name_u] Tree was always one of my favorite children’s activities at [name_u]Christmas[/name_u] time.

13

I love [name_m]Abram[/name_m] (particularly for the option to call him [name_m]Bram[/name_m])!
[name_u]Jesse[/name_u] is nice.
[name_m]Abel[/name_m] and [name_m]Caleb[/name_m] aren’t my cup of tea, though.

14

Out of those four my favorite is [name_m]Caleb[/name_m].

In order of preference:
[name_m]Caleb[/name_m]
[name_m]Abel[/name_m]
[name_m]Abram[/name_m]
[name_u]Jesse[/name_u]

15

Most favorite to least favorite:

[name_m]Abel[/name_m]
[name_m]Abram[/name_m]
[name_u]Jesse[/name_u]
[name_m]Caleb[/name_m]

16

I love [name_u]Jesse[/name_u] most and [name_m]Caleb[/name_m] least, with the others in-between. [name_u]Jesse[/name_u] is awesome.

I think [name_m]Avram[/name_m]/[name_u]Avi[/name_u] is nicer than [name_m]Abram[/name_m], just something about the Hebrew forms sounds better to me.

I don’t really get the appeal of [name_m]Abel[/name_m]. As far as Biblical A names go I’d prefer [name_m]Aaron[/name_m], [name_m]Asher[/name_m], [name_m]Amos[/name_m], [name_m]Aryeh[/name_m], [name_f]Azaria[/name_f], etc. And I love [name_u]Ari[/name_u] (“lion”) though it’s only sort of a Biblical name. But [name_m]Abel[/name_m] is better than [name_m]Caleb[/name_m], I think.

17

Out of those, my preference would be:

[name_m]Abram[/name_m] - [name_f]LOVE[/name_f] this name! The nn [name_m]Abe[/name_m] is adorable!
[name_u]Jesse[/name_u] - Like the southern feel of this, but is quite popular
[name_m]Caleb[/name_m] - It’s okay, but quite popular
[name_m]Abel[/name_m] - [name_m]Don[/name_m]'t like this one because everyone would associate it with the bible story, it’s too well known

18

[name_m]Caleb[/name_m]. I’d love to have one of my own one day :slight_smile:
