Help[Opinions] Jewish Names
I realized that I really like Jewish/Hebrew names, although I am not jewish but have hebrew backgrounds. I was wondering what you think of these names:
GIRLS
=====
Leah
Liam (I like this better on a boy, but that had it listed under female names.)
Meira
Naomi
Noa
Ora
Rivka
Tikva
Tovah
Tziporah
Tziona
Tzofiya
Tzivya
Yaakova
Zahara
Ziva
BOYS
====
Avram
Benjamin (Benyamin)
Caleb (Calev)
Daniel
Ephraim (Efraim)
Eitan
Eli
Elijah (Eliahu)
Elisha
Ezra
Gabriel (Gavriel)
Gideon (Gidon)
Jacob (Yaacov)
Joshua (Yehoshua)
Judah (Yehudah)
Jonah (Yonah)
Jonathan (Yonatan)
Levi
Malachai (Although I think I prefer Malachi)
Micah
Nathaniel (Natanel)
Noah (Noach)
Noam??
Reuben (Reuven)
Seth (Set)
Saul (Shaul)
Simon (Shimon)
Samson (Shimshon)
Solomon (Shlomo)
Samuel (Shmuel)
As you can see with the boys names, I like the anglicanized versions more than often. This is mostly for pronunciation sake. Let me know if you prefer the ones in parentheses better.
