[Opinions] Too religious (m)

It sounds like something an Evangelical Christian would name their son. Poor son!

Only terrible if you aren't an Evangelical Christian!
Surely even the most Evangelical of Christians would pause before naming a child after an enemy city left triumphantly ruined by an invading force? Wouldn't it be like a German parent in the 1940s naming a child Coventry, or an English parent naming a child Dresden? I would feel very uncomfortable about it.
I don't know...
I'm rarely surprised by Evangelical Christians' behavior these days.

It would seem odd to name a kid after a city that is most famous for being destroyed. Maybe someone unfamiliar with the Torah and Bible might use it if they like the sound.

It would be kind of weird... but the sounds are cool.
That may be why?
I actually really like Jericho, and I think it’s a cool name... I wouldn’t use it, but it does have an appealing sound to me.
And I know all about the story of the walls of Jericho, but it doesn’t repel me like some names... I’m not exactly sure why either.
Other than the phonetic sounds, i suppose.
