I'd recognize them all as biblical names, since I'm very interested in those and even considered writing a thesis on biblical names or name changes.
Apart from Nicodemas which is actually just a version of Nicodemus and not literally biblical.

---

I try to find categories of my associations. It's a non-english perspectiv on the english useage.
I named Cyrus and Nicodemus twice.

---

very biblical:
Abner
Cyrus
Ephraim
Hiram
Ichabod
=> I'd most likely not coose a name of this category because some people might be prejodiced towards the child (or me) - thinking we might be fanatics or fundamentalists

---

religious, but not too weird:
Damaris
Rhoda
Tirzah
Nicodemus

---

I know, their in their origin is biblical, but they seem normal to me:
Ira
Jared
Tobias
Judith

---

Names, that just happen to be mentioned in the bible, but aren't religious (jewish or christian origin):
Cyrus
Felix
Linus
Rufus
Claudia
Julia
Drusilla
Nicodemus

---

Variants of biblical names:
Nicodemas (seems religious to me)
