true not ever Jezebel is what Jezebel was, but the connections are still heavily associated with it. Glad you like your name though.

I love the way the name sounds and I would probably use it but the associations...oh, the associations! I couldn't use it. It's a cool name though, I'm not gonna lie.

No probs

I love your name too and the Jezebel of history was not really as she was represented in the Bible. You are named after a woman who was way ahead of her time

*chuckles*

Love that! "Not every Mary is a virgin." :oP

I'm actually surprised that Jezebel hasn't caught on more...it does have that -bel ending that's pretty popular. I personally could get over the association, but I just don't like the z sound in the middle of names. Nope, I don't like Elizabeth, either! ;o) If it were Jesabel, I'd totally love it. :o)

I think because Mary is so common, we don't think of the Virgin Mary whenever we hear the name. I do, because I am Catholic and Mary is very important to us. However, Jezebel is a LOT less common, and therefore, we (okay, I speak for myself only I guess) think of the only time I've heard it used before.

I do not like Jezebel, but it has nothing to do with the biblical/historical associations.

Actually, I love Jezebel...(m)

---

But the associations are too strong for most people. I also love Judas, but same story.

Jezebel and Judas are two of my faves.

---

Mary, Joseph, Moses, and Adam are some of my least faves. Lilith is awesome, too.

---

Course, I'm Agnostic, so I'm not being very objective, but...

---

There's nothing wrong with the names.

---

And don't even get me started on my interpretation of Judas's role. Even though I'm now Agnostic, I still feel strongly that he was a 'good' guy. Jeez, if he hadn't betrayed, Jesus wouldn't have been crucified, and everyone would go to Hell, right? So he did something good. So they can stop whining about him already.

Of course, I don't believe it in the first place. But if I DID...
