Biblical baby name that isn't a name?

Typical non-name baby names are Grace, Faith, etc. but we're looking for something that's not on the top 200 list of names.





Examples are:





Olive (our first daughter, after Psalm 128 and the branch the dove brought back to Moses)





Selah (pause)





Shiloh (a city)





Clay (God is the Potter, I am the clay)





Looking for more, we don't yet know if we're having a boy or a girl, thank you!

Biblical baby name that isn't a name?
What about Tirzah? It's a city in Psalms. I beleave it's also in Song of Soloman.


Jaelle is the name of a mountain


Jordan, The river of Johns baptisms (Where he baptised Jesus)


Bethany- City where Mary, Martha and Lazarus lived


Aenon- A spring near Salim where John baptized


Safir- A town of Judah


Koa- Ezekial 23.23 I beleive it's a Babylonian province but I could be wrong


Stone- If you do not praise the Lord the rocks an stones themselves will cry out. You can use almost anything in Creation


Eden- The garden of Adam and Eve


Zion- Rather obvious I would think








You could also try you and your wife praying seperately to be led to a passage in the bible. It worked for a Friend, that's how they found Tirzah.

EDIT: I just was reading in my Bible in 2 Chron. 4:5 and the word "Lily Blossom" is used. That would be really cute to call your daughter! Or just Lily for the Lily of the Valley.
Reply:Israel, Abram(ok so it is a name, but it got changed to abraham right?)


i think that Shiloh would make a beautiful name for girl or boy.
