Judah as a feminine name represents an uncommon gender crossover from its traditional masculine usage. Originally a Hebrew name meaning 'praise' or 'thanksgiving,' Judah appears in the Bible as one of Jacob's twelve sons who became the ancestor of one of the tribes of Israel. While historically and predominantly used for boys, some contemporary parents have begun using Judah for girls, reflecting the modern trend of gender-neutral naming. As a feminine choice, Judah carries the same spiritual resonance and biblical significance but offers a strong, distinctive option that stands apart from traditional girls' names. This unconventional usage remains rare, making it a bold choice for parents seeking a name with religious heritage and a powerful sound for their daughter.
