HebrewMeaning:
"graciousness"Description:
A chief member of the tribe of Benjamin, and another obscure Old Testament name that few parents, even those tired of Aaron and Zachary, would consider. But with a pronunciation that rhymes with Gannon, it has the strong, straightforward, two-syllable sound that's in step with modern style.

SanskritMeaning:
"brightness, graciousness"Description:
A handsome Hindu boy name used throughout India.
- Hanan
Origin:
HebrewMeaning:
"graciousness"Description:
Hanan is an obscure (male) biblical figure, who was a chief member of the tribe of Benjamin. Reminiscent of Hannah, this name could be a cute choice for a little girl whose parents are looking for something that sounds a tad more modern.
