In western culture we seldom pay attention to the meanings of names. However, we often give people nicknames based on their personalities and character traits. In a similar way, names given in biblical times had much to say about the character, prophetic calling, or circumstances at the time of a person’s birth. For instance, Jacob’s name (he stole the firstborn blessing from Esau) means “supplanter” (or trickster). God later changed his name to “Israel,” which means, “He will be a prince with God” or “One who prevails with God.”

In the final book of the Bible, one of the promises given to overcomers is that they will be given “a new name.” (See Revelation 2:17.) It is very clear that names are important!

• Grow in your knowledge of God’s nature and character.
• Have a greater understanding of Scripture.
• Find a biblical name with specific meaning and purpose for your child.
