Re: Would you call these names Biblical / religious?
I'd recognize them all as biblical names, since I'm very interested in those and even considered writing a thesis on biblical names or name changes.
Apart from Nicodemas which is actually just a version of Nicodemus and not literally biblical.I try to find categories of my associations. It's a non-english perspectiv on the english useage.
I named Cyrus and Nicodemus twice.very biblical:
Abner
Cyrus
Ephraim
Hiram
Ichabod
=> I'd most likely not coose a name of this category because some people might be prejodiced towards the child (or me) - thinking we might be fanatics or fundamentalistsreligious, but not too weird:
Damaris
Rhoda
Tirzah
NicodemusI know, their in their origin is biblical, but they seem normal to me:
Ira
Jared
Tobias
JudithNames, that just happen to be mentioned in the bible, but aren't religious (jewish or christian origin):
Cyrus
Felix
Linus
Rufus
Claudia
Julia
Drusilla
NicodemusVariants of biblical names:
Nicodemas (seems religious to me)
