Of those, I like Abel, Abraham, Adam, David, Ezra, Jeremiah, Noah, Samuel, and Solomon.

Very short list though - my favorite biblical boy names would probably be: Reuel, Eber, Ittai, Yishmerai, Eliam, Chever, Nachshon, Jethro...

This is one of the most comprehensive sites I've seen on it: http://www.biblicalbabyname.com

Where's Gabriel?


I also think Canaan deserves a spot on the list.

I'm pretty sure Gabriel is more New Testament than Old Testament, which is probably why. Then again, I haven't had any formal Biblical studies in almost a decade, so I could be wrong.
