Are there certain religious faiths other than Catholic that choose names from the Bible when naming their children?

Absolutely Ma pitom. Jews typically employ Biblical names--if not as the child's secular name, then as the child's Jewish name. I cannot think of a Christian denomination that does not have adherents who do not sometimes use Biblical names.

Yep! I’d say the Jews actually have first dibs on Old Testament names. (It's their faith as much as it is a Catholic's faith, and naming from their traditions is probably something that feels just as good to them.) hebrewbabynames.com/ Of course, several Protestant factions also think they have some small claim on the word of God.

"The persecution of the Protestants and the Puritans led to their immigration to the New Land - the USA. This explains the dominance of Old Testament names in America." http://www.babynames.org.uk/biblical-baby-names.htm I would also not be surprised if some Islamic baby names are also derived from the Bible - at least, from the edited portions of the Bible which became part of the Koran. I’ve also seen claim that Mormonism is a fourth Abrahamic religion, and as such could decide to look to the Bible as a source of names for a baby.

It's not just the Catholics that read the Book - it's a whole bunch of people that feel some connection to it, and may want to memorialize that in this way. Sources: Baby name sites (listed in text).

I named my son Peter Micah. My other son is David Mark. I think Bible names are neat.

I am very connected ... to God. I think it is special to have these names. Peter in the Bible was the one who walked on water with Jesus and David was King David who followed God and was the same as David and Goliath.

We are all related to each other in reality. I like the hidden connection to God and the Bible story my kids know behind their names.

1 I'm not sure if it's part of the religion, but I had a Mormon friend with 7 kids and all of them were named after biblical figures.

2 The reason this made me curious was the show "Wife Swap" we watched recently. One family were said to be "born again Christians", had six children and all had preppy names like Columbia (for one of the girls). The father was actually brain washing the whole family like some sort of cult.

The other family were Lutheran with two daughters, neither with a Christian name. This made my husband and I both curious about the Christian naming of children and different religious beliefs on the subject.

A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
