Re: Hebrew name help please!

I like Hilda and Miriam too.
How about...
Elisheba (the original form or Elizabeth, this is a very sacred name because it means something like "God is my oath" and in ancient Hebrew culture, the number 7, a very sacred number, was the number people took oaths on, and the last part of that name, sheba, is very closely etymologically related to the Hebrew word for seven because of that)
Bathsheba
Hephzibah
