Books of the Bible

A lot of these are actual books of the Bible. Some are singular forms; others are inspired by the title.
  1. Amos
    • Origin:

      Hebrew
    • Meaning:

      "carried by God"
    • Description:

      Amos is a robust biblical name that's being discovered by a new generation of parents in a major way.
  2. Act
    • Apostle
      • Chronicle
        • Colossia
          • Colossian
            • Colossus
              • Corinth
                • Corinthian
                  • Daniel
                    • Origin:

                      Hebrew
                    • Meaning:

                      "God is my judge"
                    • Description:

                      Daniel is one of only a handful of male names that sounds both classic and modern, strong yet approachable, and popular but not cliched. It also has a solid Old Testament pedigree. The only real downside: There are about 10,000 Daniels named each year, making it a less than distinctive choice.
                  • Deuteronomy
                    • Esther
                      • Origin:

                        Persian
                      • Meaning:

                        "star"
                      • Description:

                        Esther was derived from the Old Persian word stāra, meaning "star." In the Old Testament, Esther, originally named Hadassah, was the captured Jewish wife of the King of Persia who risked her life to save her exiled people from annihilation. This story is celebrated by Jews on the holiday of Purim, so that it has traditionally been given to girls around that time.
                    • Ezekiel
                      • Origin:

                        Hebrew
                      • Meaning:

                        "God strengthens"
                      • Description:

                        Ezekiel used to be reduced to its nickname Zeke, but modern parents now embrace it in full for its power and dignity. Along with biblical brethren Asher and Ezra, Ezekiel is rising steadily up the popularity charts and is poised to take over for fading first wave Old Testament choices such as Zachary.
                    • Ezra
                      • Origin:

                        Hebrew
                      • Meaning:

                        "help"
                      • Description:

                        Ezra has a lot going for it: the strength of its heroic Biblical legacy, its quirky sound, and its fresh but familiar feel. Ezra is now at its highest point ever, but its intuitive streamlined spelling and deep roots could make it a worth successor to Elijah in the Top 10 -- or even to Liam or Noah at Number 1.
                    • Ecclesiastes
                      • Ephesia
                        • Ephesian
                          • Ephesus
                            • Exodus
                              • Genesis
                                • Origin:

                                  Word name, Biblical
                                • Meaning:

                                  "the origin and formation of something; The First Book in The Bible"
                                • Description:

                                  With the sounds of Jennifer and Alexis, and the vibes of Eden and Serenity, Genesis is a Biblical inspired choice that has been popular in the US since the 2000’s.
