Archaeology cat Posted August 30, 2009 Share Posted August 30, 2009 (edited) [quote name='Resurrexi' date='26 August 2009 - 10:10 PM' timestamp='1251321001' post='1956537'] Traditionally in English most names that are usually now translated with an -ah ending (e.g. Micah, Isaiah, Jonah) ended in -as (e.g. Micheas, Isaias, Jonas). [/quote] Those names definitely end with a [i]he[/i] (h) in Hebrew. Micah= מִיכָה Isaiah = יְשַׁעְיָה Jonah = יוֹנָה Would the -as ending be from the Latin?

dauntingknight Posted September 23, 2009 Share Posted September 23, 2009 (edited) I would name my boys after the 12 Disciples In order that they were picked. 1st boy= Peter 2nd boy=Andrew 3rd boy=James 4th boy=John 5th boy=Philip 6th boy=Bartholomew 7th boy=Matthew 8th boy=Thomas 9th boy=James 10th boy=Simon 11th boy=Jude Thaddaeus 12th boy=Judas Iscariot If I had twins They would be Cain and Abel, Jacob and Esua and other boys who were twins in the bible again in order that they come. Girls... I'm gonna have to think on that one. But think about it if I had 12 boys + a few twins I would have a biblical army.
