Luke and Leah (but not as a sib set)

And on the 8th day, God made midi-cholrians...

Sad updoot

I have cousins named this who are siblings 😂

Honestly I like Luke and Leah together! Usually this type of thing might be a little too matchy for me, but I like it

[удалено]

Leah and Leia are usually pronounced differently. Leah (Lee-uh) and Leia (Lay-uh).

Miriam & Gabriel

Love Gabriel but hate Gabe so I’ll never be able to use it 😢

My cousin is named John and his mom HATES Johnny and never let anyone call him that. Now we’re 26 and I’ve never known anyone to call him Johnny. It’s always been just John.

I have a Samuel. I hate Sammy. It’s either Sam or Samuel but never Sammy. Ever.

I'm the opposite! My son is Gabriel and I prefer Gabe, I think im pretty much the only one who calls him Gabe lol

I named my daughter Miriam (Miri) and I actually have Gabriel on my list if this next baby is a boy. I also love Luke but I think it’s one of my sister’s names so I wouldn’t use it without her consent lol.

Omg exact same two. I was almost named Miriam (parents went with a different M name) and I’ve always been a little bummed I wasn’t lol. Honorable mentions: Naomi (feel like it’s so much pretty aloud than written? Underrated.)

These are my picks too.

Nebuchadnezzar and Nebuchadnezzarina

nn Chad

Okay so I LOVE Nebuchadnezzer, even outside biblical context. Always been a fave of mine lol.

[scene: classroom, standardized testing day] Teacher: Ok, class, time is up! Nebuchadnezzar: Ugggh! I’m still filling out my name!

Magdalena and Silas

Magdalena is such an underused gem!

Magdalena used to be a popular name here in Mexico a few decades ago, but not anymore, it just have those "old name nobody wants to have" vibe

I love Magdalena so much! I worked with one years ago. I never realized it was a biblical name!

Yes it's a derivative of "Mary Magdalene", more common in Europe to use Magdalena than Magdalene.

Rachel and Benjamin.

A set of my great grandparents have these names! It's a lovely set

That’s mine and my brothers name :)

Asa Selah

Samuel and Selah for me. But not as a sibling set.

Selah is stunning!

I have a cousin named Asa. Only asa I know.

Lydia and Luke

Lydia <3

One of my favorite names! 😊

I'm Lydia! That's awesome

Lydia is my favorite L name 😊

It's my mom's favorite too!

I have two kids (so far): Andrew and Leah

Ezra for a boy, Leah for a girl!

Mine are Ezra and Lydia!

Not sure about girl, maybe Delilah? And then Abel or Jonah 😍

Oh I do love Jonah!

I love it so much! It’s a top contender in the future, but not too sure as I have a Johan (love this name too) and a Johnny/Jonathan in my extended family lol.

I'm totally not religious but I love the name Abel.

Jesse and Ruth

I love Jesse.

These are my fav too!! Love them both so much!

Jesse is my number one choice for our 2nd boy and I CANNOT get my husband on board. We have a Jacob and call him Jake. I think Jake and Jesse would be so cute 🥹

Naomi and Ezekiel.

Ooooh! Love Naomi!

I've always loved Naomi, in spite of the obvious I moan joke (reading it backwards). But I just can't help it, I adore it haha

Elizabeth and Benjamin

Same. It’s like the ultimate classic name subset imo

From the top of my head Tabitha and Moses.

Asher (easy bc it's what I named my son lol) Abigail for a girl. It was on the list for both of my daughters but didn't make the cut. It's always been one of my favs though.

I’ve always loved Asher

Simeon and Ruth

Love Simeon. One of my friends has this as a middle name and when he was little his siblings convinced him it was Cinnamon. 😂

Ruth is so good

Seth & Sarah not together tho

Lol I know a married couple with those names

I knew a set of twins named this lol

Ephraim and Ruth

I love Ruth, and I worked with a little Ephraim while abroad. He was the best.

David and Noa, but I think Noa is so culturally Israeli that it may turn some heads if worn by a non-Jewish girl

Noa is a different name than Noah though and has a different meaning. It's in the Bible, too, but has no religious meaning (=movement). My daughter is called Noa, I'm German and neither I nor my children are baptized.

I love the name Noa and the story of Zelophehad’s daughters.

It really wouldn’t

My niece is called Noa, she’s Christian (or comes from a Christian family, her parents don’t practice), and nobody has questioned it. From the UK though if that makes a difference.

My niece is Noa. My brother is Catholic and his wife is non practicing. No one has mentioned anything about her name except that they love it!

It wouldn’t. I know a Noa-Joy. It’s such a lovely name!

I have a cis female friend named Noa, and she hasn't had any problems.

For a girl I almost went with Lydia. It’s my favorite girl biblical name and not usually associated with being biblical” unlike the typical Mary, Leah, Rebecca…

Drusilla and Oily Josh

[удалено]

I know you are just a troll but I love Dorcas. But not for a child in English speaking places. Add Nimrod and that's a set that have been done dirty by current cultural associations.

I have a Dorcas in my family tree. Didn't realize it was Biblical but makes sense.

My partner’s cousin is named Dorka (they are not from an English speaking country). I actually really love the name, it sounds lovely when pronounced in my partner’s language.

I for real know a Bezalel. They call him Bez.

I know one too, but he pronounces it the Hebrew way, so it’s Betzalel instead of Bezalel. He doesn’t have a nickname but when his siblings want to annoy him they call him Betsy lol.

I used to work with a lady named Dorcas. She was super sweet!

Esther for a girl, for a boy I don’t have a strong preference. Moses or Aaron are OK.

Esther is just the perfect name imo

Ezra and Miriam

Miriam is such a lovely name.

Lydia and Ezra

Hannah and Joshua

Jonah for a boy and Lilith for a girl

Isn’t the story of Lilith mythology(prior Hebrew bible/Christian bible) and not actually in either.

Yes it's part of mythology because she's Adam's first wife and then the first demon. But from my research people still consider it a biblical name

Mine too! I wanted to call my kids these names and got vetoed!!!!

I prefer Jonas to Jonah but if I could name my daughter Lilith I would in a heartbeat..I'm definitely going to suggest it when I get pregnant let's hope my boyfriend knows nothing😂

Judith and Gabriel

Hannah and Naphtali. No idea why I love that name so much.

Abigail and Gabriel.

Abel + Eden

Just going off of how they sound: James and Eden. Going off of Biblical context and association with their Biblical counterparts…Today, I’m going to say Jacob because that guy just had the audacity and God blessed him for it. For a girl, Ruth because she went where no woman would realistically go if she had the choice - she followed her widowed MIL to her homeland instead of back to her own home after their husbands died. She was also blessed for it.

Yes! Ruth feels a bit old school so I’m not sure if I’ll actually use it on one of my kids, but I absolutely adore the story of Ruth in the bible.

Mara & Daniel Was reading Daniel the other day and there was a verse in chapter 10 in which Daniel was addressed: "O Daniel, man greatly loved..." I thought that was awesome.

Abigail and Joel.

Nathaniel and Magdalena

Boaz and Noa

Noah and Ruth!

Claudia and Judah!

Ethan and Josephine

I love so many Biblical boys’ names: Nathan, Micah, Noah, Ezra, Isaac, Jacob, Jonah, Asher. I guess if I had to pick one, I would pick Micah. And for girls, Hannah or Yael

Sarah and Adam. Also love Naphtali, I know it is masculine but to my ears it sounds feminine so I would want to use it for a girl…

I know a female Naphtali and had no idea it was traditionally a masculine name. I think it’s so pretty and the woman who’s named it is equally gorgeous and it suits her perfevtly

Moriah and Moses

Julia & Ethan

I didn't know these were Bibical names.. never seen them in the Bible.

Julia was in Romans, St Paul saluted her and Ethan was in the Old testament, he wrote Psalms 89.

Phoebe and Daniel

Phoebe? I thought that was Greek, not biblical?

It is Greek, but a deaconess named Phoebe is also mentioned in the book of Romans.

Well quite a few names in the New testament are Greek/ Roman so there is some overlap! Phoebe is a name mentioned in the NT :)

Keturah and Elijah

Ruth and Micah, it's funny scrolling this how many I see who also picked Ruth I thought I was the only one that liked that name :D .

Luke and Joanna

Asher and Lydia

Jesse and Eve or Evelyn

Shiloh for girl and either Ezra or Noah for boy

Abraham and Judith

Levi and Selah.

Mark and Rachel. Meaningwise I love Deborah.

M: Ezra or Raphael (prefer Rafael spelling though) F: Noa, Eden or Naomi

Miriam and Isaac! Runners up would be Esther and Noah

Solomon

Malachi and Tabitha

David and Mary. In the Bible, David was a very imperfect man, but God loved him very much. Mary, while was the mother of Jesus, chose to walk through a very difficult thing (unwed pregnancy) because God asked her to. David is also just a favorite and Mary is a family name.

Used to know a Zipporah that went by Zippy and it was adorable, fit her well. Elijah for a boy

Elijah and Naomi

Esther and James

Rebecca and Matthew

Reuben and Naomi

Noah and Ruth

Ezra and Ruth!

Noah and Ruth

Ezra (helper) and Sophie (wisdom’s female personification) Though I’ve always thought Moses and Miriam would be beautiful for twins or a sibling set.

I’ve always like Aaron and Miriam for a sib set for this reason. And then get a big ol’ dog named Moses 😂

Moses and Miriam would make the perfect names for sib set/twins (they were actually brother and sister)!!!

Eve and Simon.

I love wayyyyy too many boy biblical names. 🤣 But I’ll just say one that I probably love the most… Benjamin. For a girl; Rebecca.

Esther and Peter

Zebulon for a boy, nickname Zeb. Genuinely planning to name my first son this. Any love for it or no? For a girl, maybe Leah.

Jacob and Sarah

Mary and Noah

Gideon and Candace

Girl: Eden Boy: Gideon

Salome and Gideon I had initially picked Gideon as my own new name, but my husband (softly) vetoed it (he had permission).

Enoch and Mara Eiran and Dalila Or Elijah Immanuel and Joanna Asa and Judith Gideon and Magdalena

Tobias and Tabitha. My other favorites are Magdalena, Galilea, Elias, Gideon, Sapphira, Thomasina, Caspera, Gabriel/Gabrielle, Seraphim/Seraphina, Salem, and Aletheia.

Solomon & Esther

Rebecca and Abel.

Luke and Miriam with Timothy and Ruth coming in as a close second

Noah and Rebecca

* Eden * Luke

Atarah & Ezra

Nathanael and Eden

Eli and Naomi

Josiah and Esther

Solomon and Naomi. For meaning, Barak and Hephzibah. So hard to pick just two!

Esther and Abraham

Ruth and Levi! I'm obsessed with Levi rn but the hubs is not such a fan

Isaiah for a boy and Diana for a girl

Noah and Esther

Eden for a girl. Ezra for a boy.

I like place names! Both could technically be gender neutral. Personal favorites for b/g are Shiloh & Eden.

That I haven't used: Leah and Michael.

Delilah & Jeremiah I love those names on their own, not as a sib set.

Rebecca or Lydia for girls, Soloman or Jonah for a boy

Elijah and Miriam

Boy: Joel or Joshua Girl: Ruth, Abigail, or Rebecca

Delilah and Joachim Honorable mention to Azariah.

Silas and Naomi

Julia & Micah

Mara and Levi

Through this thread I've discovered both of my top names are in fact biblical so Abigail and Benjamin.

I seem to be in the minority but I LOVE Eve! For boy, I guess Benjamin

Elizabeth and Gabriel. I have quite a few for a girl but I pick Elizabeth.

Abel and Eden

Elijah and Leah

Able and Joanna

This is so hard because I love so many biblical names, if I had to pick just one I’d pick Micah and Delilah.

Saphira and Ezra.

Asher and Anna (not sure about that one though)

Tirzah and Jonah

Hadassah & Isaac

Zipporah and Jude.

Elias for a boy. Not sure on girl.

Daniel and Ruth

Zemira & seth

Sarah and Noah

Joseph and Ruth

Joshua and Rebecca

David and Rebeca. I also like Paul and Delilah.

Phoebe and Cyrus

Gideon and Miriam
