Struggling to choose a biblical name for your baby boy? Some unique suggestions for Christians

Picking out the perfect name for your newborn child is a big decision. Here, journalist Lauren Windle shares a few options from the Bible.

It’s no secret that names mean a lot to God, and therefore Christians. At times in the Bible God changes someone’s name in line with their ministry – to show that they have a new identity. This makes it an exciting but daunting task asigning a child with a name yourself - as you want their moniker to reflect the unique character and calling God has given them. 

Plenty of people like to choose their baby’s names from the many in the Bible. For Christians, it’s a natural place to start, so here, with the help of the experts at Nameberry, are a few of my favourite boy’s names for expectant parents to add to their lists for consideration.
