Names That Mean Graciousness

  1. Hanan
    • Origin:

      Hebrew
    • Meaning:

      "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.
  2. Prasad
    • Origin:

      Sanskrit
    • Meaning:

      "brightness, graciousness"
    • Description:

      A handsome Hindu boy name used throughout India.
  3. Hanan
    • Origin:

      Hebrew
    • Meaning:

      "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.
