    I would love a list for those struggling with infertility or are having their rainbow babies (babies after loss)
    It took us 19 months to conceive our second so we chose Samuel because it means “heard by God”

      Also I think Phoenix belongs on that list

      And Evelyn, which means “wished for child”!

Lastly is the name Shira, which was the name of a girl in the grade below mine, she was named quite fittingly as she could sing beautifully!

      @@evafara HI, that's very cool, I'm from South Africa! I would think it would be spelled Adinah. Many Hebrew names that usually just end in an A, will have an added H to them. All the A letters in your Hebrew name will be pronounced U, like sUn or fUn or Under.
      I hope that helps. I'm not fluent in Hebrew so I'm still not 100% I'm correct but I think what I said is right.

    Ahava (girl)- meaning love, or Ahuva meaning beloved
    Adir\Adira- meaning mighty or powerful
    Lavi (boy)- meaning lion
    Ariel/Ariella- meaning lion of G-d (and also a name for Jerusalem)
    Yaffa (girl)- meaning beautiful
    Zev (boy)- meaning wolf
    Anaelle (girl)- meaning G-d has answered
    Nadav (boy)- meaning generous
    Shalva (girl)- meaning calm and serenity

    If you like Ezra because of it's meaning, but not it's popularity, consider Azariah. It's a boy's name, but could easily be used for girls too. We named my son Avishai, "gift from the father" because I already have a niece with "shy" in her name. And btw, in Hebrew, "Shai", is pronounced "Shy".

    Here’s some other Hebrew options: Devorah is the Hebrew spelling of Debra or Deborah. So if you want to honor a family member called Debra but don’t want a baby Debbie that’s a good option. Aviva has always been a favorite of mine. And it’s a bit of a wild card but if you like Kim K’s baby Psalm but want something that sounds more name-like you could use Selah. It’s a word found in the psalms and it’s meaning isn’t known but people think it could indicate either a break in singing for a musical interlude or be a call for people to meditate on what they just read or heard. But it sounds really pretty and name-like to me.

    Raziel - Wouldn’t use it But love the feeling
    Dinah - Cute. But wouldn’t use.

    Levana - Also never heard, but love a moon/spiritual name
    Jonah - Like a jump from Noah because that’s so popular. But it’s cute.
    Riveka- I don’t like the name Rebecca and Riveka is just reminding me of that now
    Shai - Ohh I love this
    Shira- Why can I see Gabi liking this one 😂 (Problem is I love the way names sound in your voice but they don’t sound the same in mine

    Oof my first crush was called Ezra. I remember him being very gentle and playful and really boyish. He had curly brown hair and really pretty brown eyes and he had dimples. He was tall and had a really nice voice, he was very kind to me. I also remember he had an older sister called Esther who was really pretty as well. (sorry for the long description lol, I went into my nostalgic dreamy mode)

    Actually, the name "Solomon" is supposed to be pronounced "Shlomo" in hebrew, and "Ezekiel" is probably supposed to be "Yechezkel".

    I love Hebrew names especially because of the meanings. My nephews are Zion, Micah, Gabriel & Samuel. My daughter's middle name is Joelle. Other favorite Hebrew girl names I've found are Jorah, Dara, Eden, Jael & Shana.

    May I add one?
    What about Lazarus? Means “God has helped”
    I really like that “s” ending.
    I think it could be a good Ezra alternative since they both have the cool “Z” in there.
    He can be Laz or Russ for short. What do you think?
    Love all your name ideas!

    • @מיטללב-ק4ת
      @מיטללב-ק4ת 3 роки тому

      Cool, it's just not a hebrew name but the greek/roman version of the hebrew name "Eliezer", which indeed means "god has helped" or "god is help".

  • @Katiedora122
    @Katiedora122 4 роки тому

    I didn't see anything about this in the replies, but I wanted to add some contemporary literary context to a couple of the names: Raziel is a powerful angel in the Shadowhunter series by Cassandra Clare (referenced but rarely seen), and Levana is an evil queen in The Lunar Chronicles (mad and terrifying).
    Loved the list overall! It's really interesting seeing the background info on some of these unique names!

  • @joannarigby1989
    @joannarigby1989 5 років тому

    Oh my gosh I’d love it if you did another video on naming viewers baby! I am pregnant with a little girl and would so love to hear your ideas/opinions on potential names for her. I find girls names really hard!!
    Levana was by far my fave name on this list. I worry Levana is a company or brand name for something...I can just imagine a male of car ‘the Vauxhall Levana’ or something similar.
    Oh and Boaz for a boy is so cute. It’s one of my guilty pleasure names, I just wouldn’t be bold enough to use it I don’t think.

    Hey SJ, could you do a most popular name in each decade over the last 100 years. would be really interesting to see as so many vintage names are coming back and i'd love to see which are back and which aren't. for instance 80s names might not be used now much but i'd love to know what the faves are.
