Jericho

My name, and it's a cool name.

Given that the story of the battle of Jericho is essentially the story of a genocide, it is not a name I personally would choose to give a child. However, I must admit that the name does sound very cool. If it wasn’t for the Biblical story I would seriously consider giving it to a boy.

I really love the name Jericho. It's strong and unique. It just sounds cool too.

It's just okay, but it's got such a cool meaning.

I don't understand why people downvote comments saying they like Jericho for a girl. Jericho is a place name, it's only recently started being used as a given name for people, it's not a well established name in the least, so as far as I'm concerned it's as suitable on girls as it is on boys, that is not at all. But you do you I guess.

Love it! Sounds strong and handsome!

I always picture a strong Jericho. I like it.

Beautiful meaning! I love this ❤️.

My name is Jericho I love the name Jericho, it's got a sound meaning.

My name is Jericho, and I'm a woman. As a kid I hated it, because kids thought I was named after the wrestler. Or they called me Jerk-o. Sometimes I'd be referred to as "The Wall". Now as an adult I absolutely LOVE my name. It's unique, and everybody loves it. Some people still stereotype me with "you have a boy's name", but mostly people tell me how unique it is; and how strong of a name it is. The meaning of the name is in 2 chronicles 28:15 Jericho; city of palm trees. The meaning means a lot of things. City of palm trees, city of the moon, and fragrance.

I changed my name to Jericho and people call me Jerry. I love my name now!

I like it but would never use it for a child because of one thing... I don't think it would take long for classmates to come up with a taunting of "Jericho the jerk-o"

Other than that, it sounds very cool and makes me think of an attractive, bad-ass type of male character who doesn't take crap from anybody.

It reminds me of chorizo. And then I get hungry.

This is such a cool name for a guy! It sounds rather exotic and classy. I like the way it's spelled, too. I would consider this name for a boy if I ever have one someday!

At first I truly disliked this name, but I swear every time I hear it I like it more and more.

Somehow this makes me think about a very masculine guy who is dumber than a box of rocks and acts like a jerk.

Sounds so cute! I like it a lot! I dislike the fact that it is also a city, but as a name alone it's perfect.

The name is so weird, I just love it.

I love Jericho for a girl.

I love Jericho for a girl.

I am a girl and my name is Jericho. I love it because it is so unique.

Jericho is a cool name. Nickname if he wanted could be Jerry. My 6 year old son wants to name his son one day Jericho.

Nice name.
