Re: Atheists giving their kids Biblical names
in reply to a message by Laslow
I don't think it is ridiculous; there are so many motives behind a name. When you want to name your child after deceased or living family members, your name choices are often restricted and you cannot avoid a biblical name. Another motive may be a name that does not "stand out" and is yelling at everybody "Your parents are atheists". Again, some more or less secularised biblical names can be the names of your choice.
