HelpRe: Opinions on these Biblical Names?
in reply to a message by Nagbehr
Ezra- sorta. It isn't common, and I can only think of Ezra Pound and Better than Ezra as other associations. It doesn't sound overly Jewish to me.
Abel- it is a last name, too, where I am, so I have that association. Again, another rare name that sorta is Biblical. There's also the adjective able which sounds the same. The only sound similar in Cain and Abel is the long a sound, so I don't see where you think Wade and Abel sounds like Cain and Abel.
Seth- no. There's the Egyptian god Seth/ Set, but I know a few. But, this isn't also a book of the Bible (Ezra) or a well known story (Abel), so it isn't so obviously biblical. If you do use Seth, you'd have to either change the mn or just not care that the name doesn't flow like you wanted.
