How about my name?
My name is Zyriah, But in the new testament my name is spelled Zariah. I havnt seen it for sure but thats what my parents say. All I know is that the guy in the new testament that had that name was murdered. What else can anybody tell me about my name. Whats it mean? And has anybody in the world ever heard it before? BTW, my sisters name is Jera, I think that comes from the bible too...

Not "Zariah" but "Azariah".
In the New Testament you can find him in the book of Daniel.
In the Old Testament there are several people named "Azariah". One
of them was king of Judah.It means "Help of God" or "God helped me" (AZAR = help)."Jerah" also appears in the bible as a name. It means "moon".

correctionDaniel is in the Old Testament of course. I don't know where your parents found him in the New.
