More Biblical Hebrew names
Gershom
“From the Hebrew "Gershom" meaning "a stranger there" or "exile" — Moses named his son Gershom because he said "I have been a stranger in a foreign land" (Exodus 2:22), giving the name a permanent association with the experience of displacement, foreignness, and living far from one's homeland. It is one of the Bible's most poignant names for the condition of diaspora.”
Solomon
“From the Hebrew "Shlomo", derived from the root "sh-l-m" related to the word "shalom" meaning peace, completeness, and wholeness. Solomon was the son of David and the third king of Israel, renowned in the Hebrew Bible for his extraordinary wisdom, vast wealth, construction of the First Temple, and his authorship of Proverbs, Ecclesiastes, and the Song of Songs.”
Susannah
“From the Hebrew "Shoshannah" meaning lily or rose — specifically the water-lily or lotus, a symbol of purity and beauty. In the Deuterocanonical Book of Susanna (appended to Daniel), Susannah is the virtuous woman who is falsely accused of adultery by two lecherous elders and is vindicated through the wisdom of the young Daniel, making her name a byword for innocent beauty unjustly accused.”
Dinah
“From the Hebrew "Dinah" meaning "judged" or "vindicated", derived from the root "d-y-n" meaning to judge. In the Hebrew Bible, Dinah is the only named daughter of Jacob and Leah, whose story — the assault by Shechem and her brothers' violent revenge — raises profound questions about female agency, honor culture, and justice in the ancient world.”
Naomi
“From the Hebrew "Na'omi" meaning pleasantness, sweetness, or delight, derived from the root "n-ʿ-m" meaning pleasant, agreeable. In the Hebrew Bible, Naomi is the mother-in-law of Ruth, whose story of bitter loss (she asks to be called "Mara" meaning bitter after her husband and sons die) and ultimate restoration through Ruth's loyalty is one of scripture's most moving portraits of grief and redemption.”
Nehemiah
“From the Hebrew "Nechemyah" meaning "God has comforted" or "comforted by Yahweh", compounded from "nechem" (comfort, consolation) and "Yah" (divine name). In the Hebrew Bible, Nehemiah is the cupbearer to the Persian king Artaxerxes who returns to Jerusalem to rebuild its walls in fifty-two days, becoming both governor and reformer of the restored Jewish community.”
