Abigayle

Naomi

Biblical Hebrew · “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.”

Abigail

Biblical Hebrew · “From the Hebrew "Avigayil" meaning "my father rejoices" or "father's joy", compounded from "av" (father) and "gil" (joy, rejoicing). In the Hebrew Bible, Abigail is the beautiful, wise wife of Nabal who defuses a potentially catastrophic confrontation with David through a swift, tactful intervention, winning David's admiration and eventually becoming his wife after Nabal's death.”

Rachel

Biblical Hebrew · “From the Hebrew "Rāḥēl" meaning ewe (a female sheep), conveying gentleness and the pastoral beauty of the ancient Near East. In the Hebrew Bible, Rachel is the beloved wife of Jacob, for whom he labored fourteen years, and the mother of Joseph and Benjamin — her tomb near Bethlehem remains a major Jewish pilgrimage site.”

Hannah

Biblical Hebrew · “From the Hebrew "Ḥannāh" meaning grace, favour, or God's gracious gift, derived from the root "ḥ-n-n" meaning to be gracious. In the Hebrew Bible, Hannah is the mother of the prophet Samuel, whose moving prayer in the Temple (1 Samuel 1-2) after years of barrenness became a model of faithful, earnest prayer in Jewish and Christian tradition.”

Lawson

“Lawson is an English surname used as a masculine given name, a patronymic meaning "son of Lawrence," where Lawrence derives from the Latin Laurentius, referring to someone from Laurentum, a city whose name may come from laurus (laurel). As a given name it is found primarily in English-speaking countries, particularly in the American South and among those honoring family surnames.”

Halie

“Halie is a variant spelling of Hailey, an English surname and given name derived from a place name meaning "hay clearing" or "hay meadow," from Old English heg (hay) and leah (clearing, meadow). As a given name it became popular in English-speaking countries in the late twentieth century, with Halie as a distinctive spelling variant.”

Eula

“Eula is an English feminine given name, a shortened form of Eulalia, derived from the Greek eulalia meaning "well-spoken" or "sweetly speaking," from eu (well, good) and lalein (to speak). Saint Eulalia of Mérida was a fourth-century Spanish martyr, and the name saw particular use in the American South during the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.”

Audrey

“Audrey is an English feminine name, the Anglo-Norman form of the Old English Æthelþryð, composed of æthel meaning "noble" and þryð meaning "strength" — thus "noble strength." It was the name of Saint Audrey (Saint Æthelthryth), the seventh-century Abbess of Ely, whose legend linked cheap lace sold at her feast-day fair to the word "tawdry" — though the name itself retains its original nobility.”

Rick

“Rick is an English masculine given name, typically a short form of Richard (from Old French Ricard, composed of Germanic elements meaning "powerful ruler") or of Frederick. As an independent given name it became popular in twentieth-century North America, carrying an informal, approachable quality.”

Zack

“Zack is an English masculine given name, typically a short form of Zachary or Zachariah, which derive from the Hebrew Zechariah meaning "God has remembered" or "remembered by God," from zachor (to remember) and yah (God).
