Baby Namer

ENGLISH NAMES - HEBREW & CHRISTIAN

A

Aaron	Hebrew for "shining light" or "high mountain" and Arabic for "messenger." Aaron was Moses' brother. This name has been the surprise hit of the 1980s.
Abby	Latin for "head of a monastery." A nickname for Abigail, but also nice on its own terms.
Abraham	From the Hebrew for "father of a multitude." Almost a guarantee that your child will grow up to be very wise. Bram is a nice nickname that works well on its own.
Ada	From the Hebrew for "adorned" and Latin for "of noble birth." A short, sweet palindromic name.
Adam	From the Hebrew for "earth." This is it, the original boy's name. Extremely popular in the nineteenth century; peaked again in the 1970's.
Adena	From the Hebrew for "delicate." Relatives: Adina, Adinna, Adenna.
Adolph	German for "noble wolf." For obvious reasons, its post-World War II use has been limited. Adolphus is a possibility, with Dolph the preferred nickname.
Adrian	A variation of "Hadrian," Greek for "rich" and Latin for "dark one." Very popular among popes. Sylvester Stallone gave it a seemingly permanent prefix with the line "Yo, Adrienne" in the ROCKY movies.
Agatha	Greek for "good." Agatha was a thrid-century saint. The French spelling. Agethe, livens this one up, but may present pronunciation problems.
Agnes	Latin for "lamb." Agnes was an extremely popular saint in the third century. John Keats wrote a very sensual poem of the same name in the nineteenth century.
Aida	Old English for "joyful." A grand opera by Verdi; the elephants come on stage for this one.
Alan	Gaelic for "handsome." The feminine form, Alana, is currently in vogue. The "y" variations are also an interesting choice for a girl.
Alaister	A Scottish version of Alexander. Conventionally a boy's name, occasionally used for a girl.
Albert	A German compound of "noble" and "bright." Extremely popular at the turn of the century both in this country and abroad, perhaps because of Queen Victoria's husband, Prince Albert.
Alexander	Greek for "protector of mankind." Extremely popular in all its forms, especially in royal circles.
Alfred	Old English for "wise cousel." Seldom used these days despite some terrific antecedents.
Alice	From the Old German for "noble" and Greek for "truth." It was Lewis Carroll's "Alice" who journeyed through Wonderland and also stepped through the looking glass.
Amber	Arabic for "yellow-brown." Making a deserved comeback, and a nice middle name, too.
Ambrose	From the Greek for "immortal." Ambrosia was the mythical drink of the gods and was thought to bring immortality to anyone who tasted it.
Amy	Latin for "beloved." One of the great names, conventional but not plain, popular but not trendy.
Anastasia	Greek for "resurrection." A very rhythmic name that conjures up images of old Russia.
Andre	French variation of "Andrew." An apropos choice if you have French antecedents, and becoming popular even among those who don't.
Anthony	From the Latin for "priceless" and Greek for "flourishing." The classic for an Italian-Ameican boy; Antonia for a girl is much less common and quite nice.
April	From the Latin for "blooming" and the spring month.
Ariel	From the Hebrew for "lion of God" and Shakespeare's sprite from THE TEMPEST. Yours will not be the only Ariel in the playground.
Arthur	Welsh for "bear hero" and shrouded in the mists of British history. A name that deserves to be more popular than it is currently.
