Names used in Indonesia
Hi! What do you think of these names? Feel free to write down your opinions :") As far as I know, these names are only used in North Celebes region of Indonesia, and most of them are used by Christians (except for Nathania).1. Ecclesia (female). It is derived from the Greek "ἐκκλησία" which means gathering of those summoned. I think it is used as a given name because in school (of course Christian school) we are taught that Ecclesia is not the church in meaning the building, but the Christian themselves.2. Injilia (female). It is derived from the Arabic "إنجيل‎" which means gospel with the suffix -ia.3. Inri (unisex). It is a word name (?) that is written above Jesus' cross as an abbreviation of "Iēsus Nazarēnus, Rēx Iūdaeōrum" which means Jesus, King of the Jews.4. Nathania (female). A feminine variation of Nathan.
