One of the churches I served as pastor had many babies born to our church members each year. On occasion, one or both of the parents would ask me what I thought about a specific name, particularly a name in the Bible.<\/span><\/p>\n

I did not have all the tools and technology we have today, so I did my best to research the names they were considering. Today, we can go to the Social Security database and get the names given to babies each year. I did just that and, with the help of technology, found the names that have a biblical origin.<\/span><\/p>\n

My criterial were simple. The name had to be a biblical name, and it had to fall out of the top 500 rankings for the past five years.<\/span><\/p>\n
