Ivah
“Ivah is a biblical place name appearing in the Hebrew scriptures as a city conquered by the Assyrians, of uncertain etymology. As a given name it has occasionally been used in English-speaking countries as an archaic feminine form, possibly associated with Iva (a variant of Eve or Ivy) or treated as an ornate spelling variant.”
Zachary
“The English form of the Hebrew Zechariah, meaning "God has remembered" — from zakar ("to remember") and Yah (a form of the divine name). It was the name of a prophet in the Old Testament and of the father of John the Baptist in the New Testament. Zachary became the common English form, partly through medieval use and partly through its American revival in the 19th and 20th centuries, boosted by President Zachary Taylor.”
Jonas
“Jonas is the Greek and Latin form of the Hebrew prophet name Jonah, from "Yonah" meaning "dove". In the Hebrew Bible, Jonah is the reluctant prophet swallowed by a great fish after fleeing God's command to preach to Nineveh. The name is popular in Germany, Scandinavia, the Netherlands, and Israel, and carries a strong biblical resonance across Christian and Jewish traditions.”
Maria
“The Latin form of Mary, from the Hebrew Miriam (מִרְיָם), whose meaning is uncertain — proposed interpretations include "beloved," "wished-for child," "sea of bitterness," and "rebelliousness." In Christian tradition, Maria is above all the name of the Virgin Mary, which drove its adoption across Catholic and Orthodox Europe. It remains one of the most widely used feminine names in the world.”
Seth
“From the Hebrew Shet, meaning "appointed" or "placed" — from the root shith, "to put" or "to set." In Genesis, Seth was the third son of Adam and Eve, born after the death of Abel, and regarded as the ancestor of all humanity after the flood through his descendant Noah. The name has been in English use since the Reformation, when Old Testament names became fashionable among Puritans, and has remained in continuous quiet use.”
Mimmi
“Mimmi is a Scandinavian diminutive of Maria or Miriam, both ultimately deriving from the Hebrew name Miryam of debated etymology — possibly meaning "sea of bitterness", "rebelliousness", or "wished-for child". As a standalone given name, Mimmi has been used primarily in Sweden and Finland, where it functions as a light, affectionate nickname form. It is also found as a given name in its own right in Nordic countries.”
