My last blog post provided you with a list of male Hebrew names, and in it I mentioned that I was going to make a list of female names to match. Well, here it is! I tried to make sure these were all authentically Hebrew names, but since I'm just a person that (like you) looks stuff up on the Internet, there may be some small variantions between what you find here, and what you find with a Google search.

But it's a place to start, right? If Hebrew isn't really what you're going for, I've also made lists of male and female English names for your charries. Enjoy!

Hebrew Names – Male

Baby names. It seems all the Internet ever thinks people want to name is babies (which is fine), but we writers know there's a whole population of people out there that are naming babies of an entirely different sort, the kind that spring into the world fully grown from our own vibrant imaginations. That's what this list is for. Names for characters, on a site without ads for rattles and teething toys and cribs in the margins.

Those who have been following my blog for any time at all probably remember the posts that provided lists for male and female English names, and I thought I'd try another ethnicity—that of God's chosen people, the Israelites. (Besides, I have to admit, I just really like Hebrew names). Though a lot of this list consists of names that can be found in the Bible, many them aren't, so if you're looking for Bible names, you'll have to do some of the sifting yourself. :) Also this list is only has male names on it. If you're looking for female Hebrew names, this is the list for you.

A
Aaron – high mountain
Abel – breath; child
Abijah – the Lord is my father
Abner – father of light
Abraham – father of a multitude
Adam – created by God
Adin – handsome; delicate
Adlai –my witness; refuge of
Ami – reliable and trustworthy
Amos – to bear; carry
Ariel – lion of God
Aryeh – lion
Asa – healer
Asher – fortunate; lucky
Aviv – spring
A'ya – vulture; bird
Azarel – with the assistance of God
B
Bartholomew – furrow; hill
Benaiah – God has established
Boaz – swiftness
C
Cain – craftsman
Cale – to be faithful
Carmi – my vineyard
Chaika – life
Chayim – life
Cohen – priest
