Leviathan Origin and Meaning
The name Leviathan is a girl's name meaning "twisted, coiled; in modern Hebrew - whale".
This biblical beast name entered the US charts for boys in 1991, but its history as a name goes much further back. It was recorded on an English Romani woman around the start of the twentieth century. Will we ever see it on a modern girl?
